      The US government (the red and blue party who have been cycled in power for a century) engage and has a long history of engaging in fascist practices. Such as sending billions in aid or selling weapons to far-right governments (israel) or dictatorship (saudi arabia), the creation of a dystopian mass surveillance system capable of peeping at the average person at any give time, or the historical involvement in false flag operations like the bombing of piazza fontana.

        Wow you must think pretty much every first world nation is fascist then. It takes more than what you’re saying to be fascist. Far right governments existed before fascism , and while America is far from progressive, it’s not really fascist either.

          Sadly that’s the reality of the world we live in. Name a single first world nation in the world that isn’t ruled by corrupted politicians or that isn’t a police state ready to beat people at the first occasion.

          While the policies of modern states may not be as violent and radical as that of fascist regimes from the past keep in mind that never in history nations had so much control and influence over people. Mass surveillance is something hitler or mussolini would have dream of.
