When you realize that the US isn't 'slipping into fascism' but us in fact already there, it does a lot to make it make sense. It's like, you never really know what the state is until you're homeless. You think you're free, but then you try to have a beer in a public park. You think you can protest, but if you defend yourself at a protest from deputized fascists, the state will literally send a death squad after you and murder you in public. Folks, it's here now, make no mistake. Even under Biden, we are still under fascism.

    I’ve commented this before but Mackenzie Wark in Capital is Dead says that the neoliberal era would be more accurately called alt-fascist.
