Joe Biden is a fascist.

In order to use an agreed upon definition, I am following Umberto Eco& #39;s 14 Points of Fascism.

For reference:

1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism

Biden has criticized Donald Trump for being too soft on China, Venezuela, Russia, and Iran. His economic plan is built on imperial competition over resources and markets.

3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause

Biden& #39;s campaign has actively sought to scapegoat opposition within the Democratic Party for his defeat even before the election. They& #39;re hamelessly using troll farms to do it.

4. Supremacy of the Military

Biden has been running on a bigger military budget since day one. He actively supported #ForeverWar in Irag and Afghanistan while opposing social spending. The military is the social welfare program of choice for Joe. https://www.politico.com/2020-election/candidates-views-on-the-issues/military/defense-spending/">https://www.politico.com/2020-elec...

6. Controlled Mass Media

MSNBC and CNN have been openly shilling for Biden since the other RW candidates all dropped out and endorsed him. The CEO Comcast, MSNBC& #39;s parent company, is a huge supporter and it shows in his coverage. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/13/biden-dnc-fundraisers-lobbyists-394838">https://www.politico.com/news/2020...

7. Obsession with National Security

The best known military man in America today endorsed Biden at the Dem convention because of Joe Biden& #39;s long obsession with putting more authoritarian national security laws in place.

9. Corporate Power is Protected

This one really isn& #39;t up for debate. #1448998159e7">https://www.forbes.com/sites/michelatindera/2019/12/07/here-are-the-billionaires-backing-joe-bidens-presidential-campaign/ #1448998159e7">https://www.forbes.com/sites/mic...

10. Labor Power is Suppressed

Joe Biden talks a good game about being "working class" and supporting the right to unionize.

Yet his signature labor achievement was NAFTA, which destroyed labor power in America. https://www.insidesources.com/labor-unions-urge-lawmakers-end-nafta/">https://www.insidesources.com/labor-uni...

12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment

I believe I addressed this under human rights, but let& #39;s just put something else here again. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/6/20/18677998/joe-biden-1994-crime-bill-law-mass-incarceration">https://www.vox.com/policy-an...

17. Fraudulent Elections

Despite Joan Walsh& #39;s very bad article here, does anyone really think Biden won every county in MI? Does everyone remember getting a non-partisan ballot instead of a Dem ballot here in OR, despite being a Dem? https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/sanders-biden-michigan-sexism/">https://www.thenation.com/article/p...
