CMV: The US is an Authoritarian State from the Right and seemingly moving more towards Fascism under the current administration.

I think the best way to demonstrate my point would be to show how it meets the criteria of authoritarianism and fascist nationalism. The US fits the criteria under both and is seemingly moving towards more authoritarian and fascist policies. Furthermore, this is extremely harmful and seemingly becoming worse under the current administration. <br>If you can change my view, I'll be sure to reward you with those cool little chambers badges.<br><br>**EDIT** <br>I'm not going to be able to reply until later tonight and I have a lot to get to so I will do my best to respond to everyone and give everyone the respect of a reply that their comment deserves.<br><br>**EDIT 2** <br>I'm back, I have 75 comments to get through so I'm going to batch them together and get through them as quickly as possible. <br><br>**EDIT 3** <br>I'm back again, my family and I went out to dinner tonight for my birthday and I didn't get a chance to respond.
