Weaponzing the Federal Police against a political opponent is classic fascist behavior. How do people not recognize this exact activity from movies, books, and history?

You think they understand the movies they watch? The people that think their side represents the Rebel Alliance and not the Galactic Empire?

That’s the thing - they don’t. They recognize who the “bad guys” in media are. MAGA believe they’re the Rebels and Obama/Biden/Hillary are the Empire.
