Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) urged her Democratic colleagues to stop attacking the "oligarchy," arguing that the word did not resonate with most Americans.
Fascism is the open dictatorship of the most reactionary, most chauvinistic, and most imperialist elements of finance capital, used as a tool by the ownership class to crush the working class and revolutionary movements when their rule can no longer be maintained through “normal” parliamentary democracy. It is capitalism in decay and crisis, resorting to extreme violence, nationalism, and repression to preserve class dominance.
The CIA and broader U.S. intelligence apparatus from George W. Bush to today function as instruments of the ownership class, increasingly showing fascistic tendencies as capitalism faces deeper internal crises. After 9/11, intelligence agencies expanded mass surveillance, covert operations, and political manipulation — not just abroad but domestically — to suppress dissent, manage working-class unrest, and defend imperialist interests. Under both Republican and Democratic administrations, the intelligence state has blurred the line between “security” and repression, normalizing extraordinary executive powers, criminalizing protest, and targeting leftist, anti-imperialist, and labor movements — all while intensifying nationalist narratives to justify it.
Im not joking he is an expert in home goods. I suspect he identifies locations of photos based on them. Are you just generally unaware of what analysts do at the CIA because it really seems like it.
You didn’t explain anything you just bloviated. It’s probably worth noting I think your definition if fascism is wrong and frankly silly.
Im not sure what you think links to books for sale represent but I know Prashad IRL and I would never cede that clown any credibility.
Stop using words when you clearly do not know what they mean.

I know a guy who is in analysis. He’s an expert in kitchen appliances. What’s he doing to create or enforce your notion of fascism?
Extremely poor taste “joke”
The above comment already explains how the intelligence agencies enforce and perpetuate western oligarchic control and exploitation.
