No I am not. That is simply the history and dynamic of ... basically every system. Read the definition of Fascism. I gave you credit for being smarter, come on

an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization

note that making the rules does not necessarily include the right wing, a nationalistic approach, or a social organization.
It is simply using the existing rules to create new ones (IE the Tax code, licensing, business transaction laws) for the purpose
of increasing wealth. Fascism would mean all kinds of social, military and legal regiments in addition to any economic philosophy

You give me "credit for being smarter"? Smarter than you?

I doubt I could live up to that standard.

At least I know my faux-left media sources are bogus and full of it; you do not, however, realize yours are.

Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the
gospel of envy.
[PERTH, 28 MAY 1948] — Winston S. Churchill

The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery. — Winston Churchill


No Socialist system can be established without a political police. Many of those who are advocating Socialism or voting Socialist today will be horrified at this idea. That is because they are short-sighted, that is because they do not see where their theories are leading them. No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent. They would have to fall back on some form of Gestapo, no doubt very humanely directed in the first instance. And this would nip opinion in the bud; it would stop criticism as it reared its head, and it would gather all the power to the supreme party and the party leaders, rising like stately pinnacles above their vast bureaucracies of Civil servants, no longer servants and no longer civil. — Winston S. Churchill
Winston Churchill was a racist right wing zealot so of course he would think that but he was wrong.

Wow

Churchill's courage and leadership during the Battle of Britain inspired his country to Victory, reversing what seemed
like a devastating defeat.
Churchill displayed the same courage and leadership throughout WW2, which resulted in the Allies' hard won Victory

Churchill is arguably the greatest statesman/leader of the 20th century.

Wow

To be fair, Mussolini made the trains run on time.

Wow
He was still a right wing zealot, racist and white supremist who Britons voted out of office as soon as the war was over.

Yup, there's just no political will in the US to change weapon laws because of the second amendent and people treating the constitution as a holy script instead of a legislative one.
I'm not a lawyer, much less an expert on the US Constitution, but surely the most reasonable interpretation of the second amendment is that the people as a group have the right to maintain a militia for defensive purposes. Inferring a right for individuals to collect an unlimited arsenal for private use strikes me as absurd.

Yes, in a militia.

Here's a Jimmy Dore video, along with a synopsis he provided:

"When New York Democratic Congressman Jerrold Nadler expressed support for increasing the minimum age for purchasing assault weapons from 18 to 21 because, as he noted, an 18-year-old’s brain is not yet fully developed, his Republican colleague from Kentucky, Thomas Massie, offered a rejoinder that left Nadler flummoxed and forced to admit that we have no compunction about drafting 18-year-olds to be sent off to kill and die in foreign wars."

And furthermore these young men and women come home with injuries, loss of limbs, PTSD and other issues, and need our help.

Where is the response of these elected officials for the sacrifices made by these young men and women and their families?

All this endless blur of hourly mass shooting is affecting my mental health -- or what there was of it.

But this eternal war-at-home must be benefitting somebody.
