It seems to be a pitfall of the thinking “it can’t happen here.”

    You’re getting downvoted not because this is some hot take people disagree with, but because you’re objectively wrong.

    • A claim to objective reality requites specifics. It requires objective proof that a claim is incorrect. I ask you to present such evidence. I made a claim from a place of personal opinion from my observations of global politics and history. You’ve set urself up with a very hard task of proving something is counter to objective reality. Good luck.

        Sure, here is an entire article, with sources and expert analysis explaining how trump is a fascist. There are dozens more articles that come to the same conclusion.

        Now let’s flip it - you claim, without evidence, that other politicians have said things more extreme than anything trump has said. Where is your proof? Suggesting people “Google the clips” is disingenuous, and suggesting it is true without proof boarders on stochastic terrorism. Why do you think fascism must include mass executions, as you indicated in your original comment?
