TDS/EDS don't exist, it's called not liking fascists and not supporting them any more than you have to because they directly oppose your goals

  ad hominem. but whatever, lets suppose trump and elon aren't fascists. what exactly do fascists do? Oppression of minorities? Check Capitalism as the main apparatus of the state? Check Imprisoning dissenting voices? Check Creating lists of people to get rid of? Check Authoritarianism? Double check Creating an out group and scapegoating it as an "enemy from within" Check if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and looks like a duck, it doesn't have to scream it's a duck and sieg heil to be sure it's probably a duck or at least not a swan

      >What dissenting voices are being imprisoned? There have been a lot of political prosecutions of people who disagree. James Comey, Leticia James, John Bolton, Mark Kelly. Luckily, grand juries and judges have prevented them from getting convictions. But dragging them through the legal process is punishment enough. The administration's incompetence at imprisoning political opponents isn't a reason to forgive them. ICE has targeted protestors, and Rubio made it clear the targeting was intentional policy. If we look beyond "imprisonment" and include "illegally or unfairly punish dissenting voices to keep them from having a voice," there are a lot more victims.
