Not American myself, but cause for concern because what does first, the European reuses.

aims to concentrate all power in the executive branch, allow discrimination based on religion, erase all gender and equality not based on their interpretation the bible, and more..

But why you should take them seriously? 50000 absolute loyalists trained to take over all levels of administration, for starters.

People would miss it, because fascism is always about being violent from a fear victimhood. And we teach this wrong: we just talk nazi bad, hitler bad, but any threat that allows one to paint the outsider as a monster without humanity will do.

The same day that Elon Musk fired the entire Twitter team concerned with fighting election disinformation, he also endorses a post where people are being encouraged to vote for the far-right German AFD party. The AFD thanked him for his endorsement and for disbanding the team that was fighting election disinformation.

He wants a system where the electorate is comprised exclusively of white, #Christian, conservative men, just as #Jesus intended.
