I think you may have reliably heard he is a fascist, which is objectively true, and confused that with unserious people saying this will be the last election.

- ReptileMan 2y agoHim being fascist is objectively false for every person that has passed 9th grade history, when fascism and WWII were studied in school. It makes as much sense as calling him juche. So calling him fascist is usually in my book indication of hypocrisy, ignorance, limited vocabulary, or lack of will to spend the five minutes it takes to understand the differences between the different types of authoritarian systems. There is no evidence that he had ever studied Il Duce or that he even knows who he is.

- monetus 2y agoJohn Kelly did say he fit the definition. The book banning thing some his base has pursued helped attach that label, imo.
- LPisGood 2y agoHe’s a right wing populist who advocates punishing political opponents, opposes the press, is extremely anti-immigrant, and advocates for adversarial territory expansion. This is by the book fascism.
