[the other bob wilson]

I should imagine the first point is to do with various defamation laws, I don't know. I do know that his opponents would have done anything to stop him running for president last year, so who knows.

On the second point, it's all cherry picking. Fascism isn't a handful of examples, it's a comprehensive totalitarian system. Taking individual examples, there's examples of "fascism" in almost any country, especially in terms of quelling riots.

This isn't fascism. It's politics. Between political opponents. It's more akin to the COVID rows between Wales/Scotland and Westminster a few years ago.

I do understand the point people are trying to mak, I just think it's a massive overreach

You’re being proved wrong on this - watch the first ten minutes of this and listen to the 14 signs of fascism as defined by a politically neutral organization as far as I’m aware. It’s beyond argument now that Trump ticks the boxes on 70-80 % of those 14 points.
