The myth that Trump is a fascist simply will not die, mainly because people who use the term fascism don't really know what it means, and they don't seem to understand that, were Trump truly a fascist (he's been out of office for three years, guys!), the people loudly decrying him would have been locked up long ago. Styx defines fascism in the video below, using what I think is a slightly more precise definition than that offered by Dictionary.com.
READ THIS BEFORE COMMENTING!
All comments are subject to approval before they are published, so they will not appear immediately. Comments should be civil, relevant, and substantive. Anonymous comments are not allowed and will be unceremoniously deleted. For more on my comments policy, please see this entry on my other blog.
AND A NEW RULE (per this post): comments critical of Trump's lying must include criticism of Biden's or Kamala's or some prominent leftie's lying on a one-for-one basis! Failure to be balanced means your comment will not be published.
Glenn Greenwald said something similar:

These are the people imprisoning non-violent Jan 6 protesters, prosecuting Trump to win an election, censoring the internet."
