Why does the definition of fascism keep changing?

Same definition:

a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

What you see is a development since the Regan area of Radical Republicanism, which has become fascism in the past 4 years. The recent acquittal of Trump is additional proof of that direction of the party.

Trump was literally another Reagan.

That's what Fox &co want us to believe. The policies are different.

Haha If anyone honestly watches fox for news they will be sorely displeased with what is actually going on around the globe.

Dems want censorship of any right-wing opinions and even claimed they were terrorists, granted it seemed a joke but in very poor taste. We need the discourse between the two. Differing opinions are what make this country great and coming together to make both work together for the greater good is what makes this country better than the rest; however, when you silence one side's voice you open a chasm that will lead to nothing but bitterness and vitriol that will inevitably be directed back at the ones who imposed the censorship.

Dems are toeing the line with that idea rn.
