Biden on Twitter said that the MAGA Republicans were semi-facist at a private fundraising event.
Further More hist press secretary, Jean-Pierre back up the claim in a press meeting last week as well. Pierre also stated that these republicans were attempting to take away freedoms and oppress people.

FACISM- a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

What party talks about race, racism, and are trying to implement policy based on race? How about the Student loan forgiveness recently done by the Biden Administration? #joebiden #maga #whitehouse #facism Marxism #socialism #communism #inflationreductionact #buildbackbetter

As an economic system, fascism is socialism with a capitalist veneer. The word derives from fasces, the Roman symbol of collectivism and power: a tied bundle of rods with a protruding ax.
Where socialism nationalized property explicitly, fascism did so implicitly, by requiring owners to use their property in the “national interest”—that is, as the autocratic authority conceived it.
Where socialism abolished all market relations outright, fascism left the appearance of market relations while planning all economic activities. Where socialism abolished money and prices, fascism controlled the monetary system and set all prices and wages politically. In doing all this, fascism denatured the marketplace.
-A great example of this is the Inflation Reduction Act, where the democrats are coercively going to set drug prices, completely undermining free markets, and moving to nationalize the health industry.
-Another example is the Affordable Care Act which put substantial regulation on the healthcare industry, and financially penalized individuals who did not want to be insured under the policy.
-The Democrats Earlier this year, introduced a bill to put price controls on gasoline. This is a blatant attempt to try ands control an industry through government and regulation, instead of by way of free trade.
-In January of 2021, The democrats introduced a bill to eliminate the electoral college, which would allow them to have a heavy advantage in every single presidential election and undermine the say of important states and individuals that work in our most important industries.
-The Democrats also attempted to pass two voting bills that would ultimately undermine the republic system and nationalize the vote, also putting the general elections in their favor.

Under fascism, the state, through official cartels, controlled all aspects of manufacturing, commerce, finance, and agriculture. Planning boards set product lines, production levels, prices, wages, working conditions, and the size of firms. Licensing was ubiquitous; no economic activity could be undertaken without government permission. Levels of consumption were dictated by the state, and “excess” incomes had to be surrendered as taxes or “loans.” The consequent burdening of manufacturers gave advantages to foreign firms wishing to export.
-This is very similar to socialist like Bernie sanders and AOC who have strong support for Labor Unions. Among the most powerful lobbyist of the government, are Unions and industry organizations that are controlled by the government itself.
-The Democratic Party has consistently grown in favor of more regulation of private business and the reduction of Free Markets with the idea of protecting the “public”

Fascism embodied corporatism, in which political representation was based on trade and industry rather than on geography. In this, fascism revealed its roots in syndicalism, a form of socialism originating on the left. The government cartelized firms of the same industry, with representatives of labor and management serving on myriad local, regional, and national boards—subject always to the final authority of the dictator’s economic plan.
Words Synonymous with corporatism are collectivism, state socialism, populism, liberalism, developmentalism, collectivist and social-democracy.

Corporatism was intended to avert unsettling divisions within the nation, such as lockouts and union strikes. The price of such forced “harmony” was the loss of the ability to bargain and move about freely.
To maintain high employment and minimize popular discontent, fascist governments also undertook massive public-works projects financed by steep taxes, borrowing, and fiat money creation. While many of these projects were domestic—roads, buildings, stadiums
-The Inflation Reduction Act, and The Infrustructure Bill.
