@-Foxer- iSn'T a FaScIsT sTaTe. NoT yEt.
Except they display fasces in congress and have supported most fascist coups around the world over the last 70 years. Anyone that says that the U.S. isn't a fascist state has a very, very narrow definition of what fascism is. With the way the Democrat and Republican parties govern, they tick off many of the boxes. They both seem to love the merger of state and corporate power in order to maintain the existing social and economic hierarchy. They're both socially authoritarian, the Dems slightly less so, but they're also both culturally exceptionalist, not many establishment Dems advocate to get rid of the pledge of allegiance, just as one example. They also both have authoritarian streaks in their parties, Republican voters love to be on the bully side and tell people what they can and can't do, while the establishment Dems think that there's channels you have travel to get somewhere and you have to get in line for the throne and Hillary is the yaas kween, with their super delegates, delegates and electoral college. It seems most people don't see the fascist/1984 elements of U.S. society because the Brave New World is poking through to blind them. Not that those elements are bad things, they often help you see some of the fascist/1984 shit, but education is also needed, legal drugs don't work on their own, and in that department the U.S. is fucked.
