The White House’s new exertion of control over the media finally gets us a perfect 14/14 score according to Britt’s Characteristics of Fascism. Granted, it’s not pass/fail. Things can still get far worse.

Huh......so we passed on all 14......which is a fail.......at least from my perspective. Maga perspective may differ.

Yes, perfectly modeling fascism is a failure. I didn’t want to suggest that we hit bottom just because we checked some boxes. There’s still plenty of room for things to get worse if we don’t do anything to stop it.

I feel like it's unamerican in regards to the values our country espouses, even though it completely and utterly fails to uphold them.

Feels like imperializem merits to be further down the line, if not the last panel.

But yes, good memetics in this meme, gg.

I think the point you're making is true, but the titular argument could still be useful rhetoric to the misguided patriot.
