A couple weeks ago, I was investigating the idea of what fascism actually is, because it's often uses a carry-all to talk about every single thing that people don't like about government. It makes a lot of sense to just call fascism date socialism where everything is brought under the banner of the state. This is in contrast to German national socialism, which is racial socialism where everyone is brought under the banner of a certain race and anyone who isn't part of that race is obviously pushed out, or class socialism where everyone is brought under the banner of one class.
It seems to me that by this definition the world is under the grip of state socialism, or fascism. Churches which don't bow to the ideology of the state end up essentially being written out of existence, big business is being bent to the will of the state and we get to see out in the open now what happens with people like Elon Musk who don't follow orders. At the moment, the Democrats are certainly fully fascist, they intend to bring everything under the banner of the state. But let's not pretend that there isn't a significant faction of the Republicans who want the exact same thing. Just look at Liz Cheney who just endorsed Kamala Harris because of course she did.
