@anildash they are emulating how authoritarian governments work. The 3 steps, bank, media, and military.
They already gotten the bank part. Now they are seizing the media part.
Sooner or later they will upgrade from paid police force, to PMCs (probably already happened)
@sub_o @anildash
They already own most of media. Beyond Fox, there is Sinclair broadcasting plus FB / the Tube which promote rw content the most for outlets like DailyWire.
We live in a situation that rhymes with a century ago, but in many ways our situation is unique because the take over is a project run over 50 years. It has been a stealth coup of sorts.
It is already institutionalized.
DeSantis made a stab at a police force loyal to him IIRC
