Fascism Inversion [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2024-12-19  

I have suggested that the U.S. version of fascism would be the opposite of the traditional definition "a political system headed by a dictator in which the government controls business and labor and opposition is not permitted" (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fascism).

Specifically the new Fascism will be business in control of the government and now ex officio Elon Musk is in the process of taking possession of the politician (D. Trump) and office he bought.

We should now think of the Regressive parts of the U.S. government and the party of Trump as a wholly owned, bought and paid for subsidiary, like Tesla or Space X, of Musk Inc. In this case Musk is the CEO and Trump, congress and the MAGAites are just parts of the conglomerate.

This reminds me of the line from Princess Bride: "I don't think that means what you think it does."
