The 'invalidation of former citizenry' is a large aspect of that 'more brutal' part of the equation. I suppose one could argue that the creation of the largest class of felonious non-voters per capita does satisfy that particular niche. Hmm. I guess it is pretty fascist then. I just haven't seen the general revolution, reorganization and mass privitization that usually precedes a fascist society. Like, if the Jan 6 thing had worked, and they then proceeded to sell all government land to local corporate entities, that would be a huge 'oh that is textbook fascism'.

Edit: I might be thinking too recent. Perhaps the American revolution itself was a fascist revolution.

The Italian fascists were absolutely as brutal to minorities, gays, and communists within their borders, as well as towards the Greeks. The only thing preventing them from being 'more brutal' at scale was the lack of a true expansionist industrial economy.
