Fascists tend to sing the same tunes. If you hear "Trump," that says more about Trump than it does about the show
Not at all. It's the caricature which people, who limit their exploration of Reality to allowed only news sources, have in their heads of their political opponents.
shareCaricature?
How about some direct quotes that could’ve easily come from Homelander:
"I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters." - 1/23/16
“[Kim Jong-Un] speaks and his people sit up at attention. I want my people to do the same.” - Fox & Friends, 6/15/18
Nope, definitely not a caricature
1. He was being hyperbolic about the loyalty he had built with his voters.
2. He was joking about how it'd be nice if people acted that way with him instead of, you know, shamelessly fantasizing about brutally killing him and putting it on tv where his son could see it.
No matter what Trump said, or how it came across, he never acted like Homelander, or Hitler, or any of the tyrants that the Left desperately wanted him to be like. The country prospered under him and he accomplished more in 2 years, let alone 4, than Obama and Bush did combined.
Yes, definitely a caricature to say the least.
trump isnt insecure who has had all the advantages yet claims to be a perpetual victim and bully? never admitting hes wrong and only caring about himself? seeing others as objects to use?
shareFascism is an economic model. Now if you are talking authoritarian, then you are definitely talking about the dems.
