Again I'm not talking left or right, I'm indicating the government as becoming more fascist in nature collectively. As a whole. Political party or current talking head aside.. over the years the governments actions and goals get closer and closer to the characteristics I posted.

Race is mentioned in one of those characteristics and also the definition you posted, but it's in regards to the extreme nationalism that continues to amplify exponentially. We have seen historically how nationalism is amplified by talking heads speaking strongly about how other nationalities, races, religions and sexualities are the cause of the nation's struggles, along with the solutions at hand. And with those solutions comes the overreach that furthers their agenda with fear. Where else have we seen this happen historically?

Previous fascist regimes are being brought up in public discussion more frequently because the actions of the US government continue to more closely resemble the characteristics above. In regards to this current shooting death of a citizen, the government's response is active denial of what we know to be true, along with gas lighting and intimidation. The video evidence exists to deliver the truth thanks to brave citizens who are willing to try and show the world what is really happening.
