Have most people who say “No he’s not a fascist” really read much about fascism? Have most people who say “No he isn’t like Hitler” really read much about Hitler? And have most people who underestimate the danger really read much about the Holocaust? When you do, it’s chilling.

Heard Noam Chomsky lately say that Trump isn't a fascist but a tin pot dictator, basically selling out the country to his rich friends without any kind of sophisticated ideology or thought for the future.

The Democratic establishment with its deep & insidious connections to intelligence agencies, the MIC, the surveillance state, the MSM, the "entertainment" industry through CAA...has set up an ideal structure for something very similar to fascism. Yes, def read about fascism.

Here's one measure of how dictatorial Trump is: how often he uses his veto power. I believe Gerald Ford was in office less time than Trump, and he had 6x as many vetoes to his credit. 🤣

Today in America the people closest to becoming fascists are the radical wing of college students and professors. They want to punish speeches with firing and even physical harassment. I haven't seen Trump do anything like that.

National SOCIALIST party. Change nationalist to Globalist and you now have their new excuse to enforce Authoritarian objectives like gun control and state controlled health care. How do you get republicans to vote for either? Our current situation is a perfect example.

Nazis were "socialists" it's actually in the name. Trump deregulates, Nazis nationalized industry. Nazis attacked other nations. Trump is getting us out of foreign conflicts. If you look at the Holocaust, only internment in modern history US citizens of Japanese heritage (FDR)

What @SamSeder is saying, and sadly, he may have a point, is that he might vote for Biden even on a safe state because if it comes down to the SCOTUS, they may take a different approach if Biden wins the popular vote by 1 million votes than if he wins by 10 million votes.
