If it walks like a fascist coup, and it quacks like a fascist coup, it's probably a fascist coup.

A few weeks in and Trump has essentially:
- Full control of the (federal part of the) legislative branch.
- Gutted the executive branch through DOGE and EOs.
- Practically DDOSed the judicial branch.
- Purged and replaced possibly disloyal military leadership.
- Taken exploratory steps on declaring military law.
- Made very thinly veiled threats of invasion towards several countries, two of which are currently allied with him.
- Wiped out more than a century of foreign policy gains in a week (which is honestly somewhat impressive, in a fucked up kind of way).
Americans, if you ever wondered how the rise of the Nazi dictatorship looked like from the inside of Germany, wonder no more, it looked kind of like this.
Honestly from Nazism back in the 30's and 40's to today technocracy, I can see the similarities. Add some modern China.
