Is it so different?

If the US’s fascist experiment continues past the current president, we’ll absolutely be nationalizing frontier companies or exerting equivalent control.

Yes, China is very different from the US.

Sigh. Obama and Biden were as every bit "fascist" as Trump.

I'm glad I get reminded that TDS is real, but everyone forgets that Bush, Obama, and Biden all did things with executive power that Congress ignored or provided little real oversight for. And Congress has proven over the last several decades that their oversight is rather meaningless for the goals of American voters rather than special interests.

But it's all Trump's fault is much more convenient.
