Fascism in the US is a bi-partisan consensus. Obama and Biden restructured DHS and ICE policies that allowed them be deployed in cities for mass enforcement. Trump used it. Biden took office and instead of undoing the polices, simply chose not to use it. Which then predictably resulted in the next Republican to take office using it.

FDR put Japanese people in concentration camps and stole all their property. Kennedy did Vietnam. LBJ did Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, DR, Bolivia, DRCongo. Bill Clinton did Somalia, Haiti, Sudan. Obama did Libya, Yemen, Niger, Cameroon. Bill and Hillary had black house slaves when they lived in the Arkansas governor's mansion.

Mass racialized incarceration is bipartisan. Prison slavery is bipartisan. Killing 800k people every year with sanctions is bipartisan. Militarizing the cops with military surplus is bipartisan.

Corporate profits are HIGHER under Democrats.

The Democrats are the right. The right wins every election, regardless of which party wins. Regardless of which party is in power the fascism continues unabated, the rich continue to get richer.
