This isn’t even questionable fascism it’s just blatant at this point (the 3rd bullet point is so incredibly telling)

Of all interpretations of the Monroe Doctrine, “We’re just gonna colonize this hemisphere ourselves” and actually doing it in the big 26 is one of the interpretations of all time.

It’s just true tho, all diplomacy eventually comes down to force of arms. Do you think China doesn’t invade Taiwan because they respect their sovereignty? They don’t invade because the U.S. would reduce their country to ash. You live in a fantasy world.

I’m not saying I’m happy about it - but it’s been reality for the past whole of human history. Nations aren’t bound by morality, they’re in a desperate knife fight with each other for power, wealth, and influence. It’s the threat of greater violence that prevents nations from taking the first “stab”

Our world is in a delicate balance that relies on leaders not going completely apeshit and invading their literal allies

Yeah but that still relies on (at its base) force. To quote Stephen Miller, it’s “governed by force, that it is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world.” Even if you disagree politically, and you say it’s wrong morally, that statement is factually correct. It has nothing to do with fascism. Another quote for you, this time from the Greek Thucydides. "The strong do what they will, and the weak suffer what they must"

The way that Stephen Miller defines force and justifies its use meets every possible criteria for fascist rhetoric. If you take this statement along with everything else he’s said it becomes abundantly clear where he stands. Rule by force may seem natural, but when used to justify extreme nationalism and expansionism it’s fascist
