  • Yes, if the January 6th charges stick that applies. But just going to prison isn't enough, and not all of the charges are directly insurrection-related. I'm hopeful it will apply, but I'm not going to count on it! I'm still voting against him, even though I live in NY so the chances he wins my state's electoral votes are quite low.

  • The "a capitalist economy" bit is the very important distinction. Communist states share most or all of the other traits with fascism. But so do Feudal countries with merchantilist economies, modern dictatorships without government-driven economy, and all other strongly authoritarian systems eventually.

  • Just because it's authoritarian doesn't mean it's fascist. The USSR murdered millions, and was an authoritarian shithole, but that doesn't mean it was fascist. It was communist. Fascism is terrible, but so are other forms of authoritarianism.
