If you were wondering what the start of fascism in America looks like

*Systematically discredit press and reshape facts

*goverment uses religion to justify their
actions

*Dramatically realign alliances and foreign policy to
associate with foreign governments closer to the new
ideology

*Openly admire and express a desire
to emulate forms of government that emulate your
fascist perspective

*intermingle patriotism and religion and the adulation
of the state above all other things
