ok: you’re operating in bad faith by refusing to look at historical analogies and using a story as the basis of your political analysis (i believe you’d call that straw manning my man), one that isn’t set up as a counter factual (if) but as a certainty (when) because a priori you’re assuming a system way more robust than it is fragile and a series of nebulous actors you don’t identify (“when people talk…”) doing that thang again with the straw man, rather than, like, engaging with the many, many scholars and thinkers on fascism who’re like: this guy checks all the fascist boxes, he’s a fascist. i invite you back to the bottom of the pyramid. it’s just: your media intake/historical analysis is obviously coloring your embedded understanding of events, which makes sense, but the silly absolutism and tech-bro confidence is as tiring as it is uninspired. 🤷🤷🤷
