    Those are normal words, I apologize for not being the right kind of articulate for you. we have been moving right for 40 plus years. Both parties have been complicit. We fight endless wars under both parties. We have lost access to inexpensive higher education under both parties. We have lost the battle to the healthcare industry under both parties. We have seen the rise of the military police state under both parties. We have become spied on in every facet of life under both parties. Our public infrastructure is falling apart and being deregulated under both parties. We have seen the militarization of our borders under both parties.

    These are real material problems that we continue to ignore with the focus on these two parties. We’ve seen a modicum of progress in certain areas, but there has been a lot of loss of freedom and liberty.

      I disagree. Neoliberalism and foments are not common at all. You can even look it up statistically if you would like. We are not a fascist regime just because you don’t like every decision. That isn’t how fascism works. You still have many freedoms others do not. Is it expensive? Absolutely. Is it fair? No. But there are plenty of Democrats fighting the dumbasses for those rights to become easier. So chill on your “we are in a fascist regime” jargon just because you can’t get every single little thing you want.

        I said we are moving towards fascism. I never said “we are in a fascist regime”.

          I don’t know if we can discuss how using more words attuned with the audience would help? I think I already said that and you didn’t take kindly to it.

          Foment as much as it could be a synonym for instigate or moving towards as you put it, could also be taken as inspires or motivates an already mobilized force. Maybe it was a poor choice for what you were trying to convey.
