How so?
@CPMSP@midwest.social shared a link to a list of traits of fascism. She doesn't fit these. The list describes a form of demagoguery that is inherently conservative, violent, ethnonationalist, and toxicly masculine, By this definition, Netanyahu and his allies for instance are obviously, clearly fascist.
Harris is supporting the same agenda. She is still guilty of genocide. But she's pursuing genocide under a banner of diverse, forward-looking girl-boss pandering to progressives. It's still bad, but I don't think you can call imperialism under the banner of fake leftist signaling fascism. I would call that neoliberal imperialism. It's still bad. It's just a different bad thing.
