Alternatively, fascism was the logical endpoint for a political party which decided years ago that appealing to racists and homophobes was beneficial to its political project of funneling money to powerful corporate interests and disempowering labor.

I am not blaming Democrats for Republicans becoming fascists. I am blaming people who overused "fascist" for years for removing the power of that word and gutting it of meaning, and making it useless now that we need it.
Something I warned would happen.
