Here are the ones I'm not sure I can ascribe to our favorite dipshit:
1. The cult of tradition. "One has only to look at the syllabus of every fascist movement to find the major traditionalist thinkers. The Nazi gnosis was nourished by traditionalist, syncretistic, occult elements. ".
9. Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy. "For your-Fascism there is no struggle for life but, rather, life is lived for struggle. ".
11. Everybody is educated to become a hero. "In your-Fascist ideology, heroism is the norm. This cult of heroism is strictly linked with the cult of death. ".

How do these even get into the oval office?
Is it all rigged?
Wall street really loves the mindless puppets?
Ala.
#1 bubba.
#2 Barry Hussein.
#3 W 43.
#4 Biden.
#5 Bush 41.
#6 brain dead Ronnie.
My biggest electoral regret ever.
My vote for Bush over gore in 2000.

That is funny because there were a million cases a day in this country in January. So why are the cases numbers low now than then? Because the government is doing a 20 X better job now?
That is the thing you dumb Dems always do. You take on an issue like saying a government can cure a cold virus or set the climate or cure the opioid crisis, and Republicans are assholes for not caring about it. So you run around pointing a finger at us and say, "You do not care", and the solution is always the same, more government control, more spending, and higher taxes, and the results time after time are a disaster.
If you are so stupid as to think government is the answer with Covid, then the Biden administration has done a horrible job, and the numbers show that Biden did way worse than Trump. I do not see that government interventions did all that much with regards to Covid. If you think we got our money's worth spending $9 trillion on Covid, you are fucking nuts.

Since Italy was not listed in the graph but since you inferred that the US did worse than Italy, look here: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ What it shows is that the US fared worse than Italy in terms of COVID death per capita.
So, in terms of "wealthy country with similar age profiles" to the US, the US did worse than these other, similar, countries.
And, FYI, my comparison was between wealthy countries with similar age profiles to the US, not simply the US compared to other wealthy countries. If you read what I wrote, you will see that I clearly stated that assertion multiple times.
But go ahead, believe what you want.

'The only people who are too dumb to see that are Republicans. '.
People that make such ridiculous assertions are really the dumb ones.

Nina Jankowicz has resigned from the Ministry of Truth and its operations have been suspended and may be completely shut down due to the widespread mockery of her insane singing and being exposed as a disinformation agent herself!

How about this? Your favorite watering hole has a "No shirt. No shoes. No Service." policy. When a shoeless, and shirtless person enters, do you 1. Beat the crap out of him? Or 2. Toss him out on his ear? Or 3. Offer to buy him a drink? You, of course, can't see the parallels but that's what makes you a good Republican. But don't worry because Tucker "Even my lawyer argued that nobody in their right mind should believe anything I say" Carlson doesn't get it either.

But as a simple guy, what's good for Umberto Eco is good for me. I've found 13 matching fascist features (out of 14) in modern Russia and at least 11 in the personality of Donald Trump. Can't go wrong IMHO.
