You know this is actual fascism, right?
Aim: total control
Method: cruelty and murder.
The people running the US are not only fascistic, they are highly likely psychopathic (power is everything; no empathy, so no conscience).
Dem leadership could act to stop them. But they won't, because they're owned by the same psychopathic oligarchs.
Awareness is the first step. Then resistance, eg, boycott the oligarchs, eg, X, FB, Amazon, etc. for a start.
