The word terrorist is pretty functionally useless. One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist, but a fascist is a fascist. The word might be badly misused from time to time, but the but the whole MAGA enterprise is without question a fascist movement.

You mentioned Joe Rogan elsewhere. If Rogan is interviewing a fascist, then Rogan is a fascist. If Rogan is interviewing a socialist, then he is a socialist. He's just a mid-wit echo chamber who got captured by a right wing audience. I think he finally figured out that he fucked up, but can't figure out how to escape without losing his whole audience.
