      scary

      Define fascism and then check how much was already fulfilled 10 or 20 years ago.

      Also check the biography of German chancelor Merz, especially his former employer.

      * Downvotes for what? This is not a pro fascism comment.

      To answer my questions, most requirements of fascism are already fulfilled so we are mostly just dropping the fassade. This includes Europe because Merz has worked for Blackrock, so his worldview very likely supports the neoliberal approach that is also driving the US.

        it’s not helpful either…

        say what your point is, don’t send people to do homeworks to guess at what you are trying to say

          Thanks. I have added the answer. I had assumed that by now almost everybody knows about Blackrock.

        I’m sure what you’re saying has merit, but I’m scared enuff right now. Maybe later.
