Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) urged her Democratic colleagues to stop attacking the "oligarchy," arguing that the word did not resonate with most Americans.
Neoliberalism’s erosion of the welfare state and GWB’s brutal and bumbling advancement of American Oligarchy via the War on Terror are why we are currently living under outright fascism. Those who caused this current crisis must be cast out as arsonists who lit the current inferno
Anti-fascists must be united and must avoid factionalism. She is not an anti-fascist, which is why she supports our ruling class of oligarchs. Because she is not a part of our movement, but is a deceiver who literally works for the spies of the American Oligarchs, we must not accept her as on “our” side
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.
Well, one line of my comment was about her being part of the CIA torture apparatus. The rest detailed how she, personally and with the help of the Democratic Party, did fascist things like subvert the will of the people by preventing real political choice.
This isn’t a situation where we can pick the lesser of two evils and hold our nose. I’m outright saying she’s part of the problem — so fuck her and her insistence that we focus on only the kings they want us to be concerned about. And fuck her desire to step away from our moral duty to protect others from discrimination.

1- I’m not who made the claim
2- How is this distinction a material difference? If she worked for torturers then she is unsupportable

She is a fascist. She worked for torturers

Extremely poor taste “joke”
The above comment already explains how the intelligence agencies enforce and perpetuate western oligarchic control and exploitation.

I will not abandon my principles for word games.

We could be. You’re happy as long as fascism wears a blue necktie.
