    “Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.”

    Checks out.

    I was going to push back on this bit, “subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race” as the US is all about individualism but then I remembered that the MAGA people are doing this anyway. They’re a homogeneous group that drives lifted trucks, obsesses about guns, and wears the same types of clothes.

      A huge one is that they’ve stripped away the individual right to abortion by way of the right to privacy.

      And the MAGA dipshits cheer it, because they don’t realize what they’ve really lost.
