Not really. It gets pointed out in the news a lot because it's so salacious, but it's not at all common really. 2016-2020 saw a bit of an uptick in that kind of name-calling though, as the Trump administration implemented various policies and emboldened those with a pre-existing preference for authoritarian societies/systems, in spite of their self-professed "love of freedom".

What we have now is a nationalist authoritarian movement that borders on delusional, leveraging emotional contagion theory and group identity/identity politics to manipulate otherwise well-meaning (if gullible) people into supporting would-be tyrants.
