How do you all really define fascism?

In these times, I find it hard to distinguish - since in a duo-partisan (American) government, one is defining it in just one way, to discredit the other half (in my view, not only Americans love doing that, but "all their vassals")..

Meanwhile.. (if one would read into it)..
..all the public media are being "cleared" towards a unified definition. - What a hoot.

Freedoms taken from the people are abundant. Especially in this digital age, me thinks.

As for fascism in general, I believe that corporatocracy has become the blatant fascism we all keep suffering from together, in these times.

Anyway, just a thought, not intending to (nor believing to) trigger any "earthquake-like-reaction" here on this get-together of well-indoctrinated folks.

Texas' hubris believes its own hype and flaunts 'whadya gonna do about it' to an overwhelmed DOJ and vilified FBI. They've been after Ken Paxton, indicted on securities fraud and abuse of office, for the last eight years yet he's managed to get re-elected as State Attorney General for a third term last fall. The highest legal authority in the State.

Texas refuses to even name the current Secretary of State — it's just referred to as "The office of."   Don't tell me Donnie boy wasn't/isn't a decoy.
