it's always been serious. this conversation reminds me of when trump got elected 4 years ago. You had libs going "We're a fascist dictatorship now, you have to take this moment seriously." and you had socialist saying "always has been, this is just the newest low in our constant downward trajectory."

Legal scholar Juan Cole describes Trump's election this way: "How the U.S. went fascist." Documentary filmmaker Ken Burns terms Trump's presidency "Hitleresque."
