    Well, the US has arguably always been fascist. Essentially fascism is copratist control of the economy and a merger of corporations and state. Of course corporations as entities have evolved after the US’s conception, but we’ve never been a democracy of the people, with only wealthy white business owners calling the shots.

    We stole the land with genocide and apartheid, then built it on the backs of slaves. The house the president lives in was even built by slaves. When we “abolished” slavery, we had to make sure that we had a way out through incarceration. Guess which nation incarcerates more citizens than any other nation?

    Not only that, but the US was a major inspiration for both Hitler and Mousolini.

    And not to mention how we are constantly starting wars and instability around the world for our oligarch’s own benefit. And that out biggest enterprise is weaponry and war technology.

    The US is and has always been a fascist nation.
