You just collapsed your own wave-function right in front of us all. I pray it goes back into superposition for you and gives you a chance to try again.
Let's say a third party was elected and started implementing certain policies. What would they have to do for you to call them fascist? Fascism is an actual thing, after all, so there must be some line that would separate fascism from not-fascism.
It's only fascism when it comes for them personally. Mask wearing when sick ? "How dare you, that's fascist" . Entering private domiciles without a proper warrant? "Democracy, as the founding fathers intended"
> Entering private domiciles without a proper warrant? "Democracy, as the founding fathers intended"
Or my personal favorite, "a mandate."
Interestingly I don't recall any other US President in recent memory (last 30 years) referring to their policies, or more accurately the fact that they won an election, as "a mandate given by the American people."
But you only need to go back a few more decades to find similar phrases used by a certain country's infamous authoritarian regime. Are the frogs boiling yet? It's starting to get really uncomfortable really fast.
