        how about the textbook, which fits perfectly

        utahoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy

          I don’t know about perfectly, I don’t see the hallmark ultranationalism in Biden, and he also seems to care about election results, which makes dictator a little harder to say. I also don’t see force being used to suppress his opposition, since Trump is still free and able to defend himself. Few others, but those are the big ones.

              Yeah, I won’t argue that Biden has some conservative in him. I’m not a big fan of it either.

            He didn’t call Biden a fascist; he called the (current-ideology) Republicans fascists and he called Biden a (previous-ideology) Republican.

            In other words, he’s saying that the politicians are shifted one category to the right of where they claim to be.

              I think you missed a third group. MAGA is not all repubs, there’s all the Liz Cheney types they forced out. I assume he meant they were fascist too.

                You’re not accounting for time. MAGA is all Repubs now, because all the Liz Cheney types have been forced out.
