As a historian and teacher, and as a Jew, I don’t throw around accusations of Nazi and Fascist lightly, but Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric and policy proposals have crossed the line.

Another escalation against the proletariat, although I think that Biden's administration is sanctifying a lot of what Trump did in his previous term, which only gives more ideological unity to increasingly fascistic policies.

    I know there's joking about this on hexbear but I am genuinely terrified of the US going full fascist or Nazi

    If it makes you feel any better, I doubt the US would fall as easily to that as Germany did. That's not to say they won't try, but I think modern day US is just far too divided for any kind of easy power grab. I think a more likely scenario is that an attempt to bring full fascism would only destabilize the country. This might even be an opportunity for the left to gain ground, especially given the popularity of left ideas among young people. These Christian Nationalists are absolutely as delusional as you think they are and I'm not sure they have any clue what will actually come out when they open up that box.
