It looks more facist to me. I also think most people have been brainwashed to believe that means one dictator like Hitler, but our system is one where people are expected to vote for either the blue facist or the red facist.
They don't even pretend anymore. The debates are totally divorced from the choices nowadays.
Trump did not participate on Republican debates and Biden refused to debate Kennedy.
In my opinion, the Republic fell in 2015, when the Obama was not permitted to choose a Supreme court judge. That was the first time I realized our form of government does not work how I was taught it worked at least.
