(i don't think it's really an exaggeration to call ron desantis's state policy fascist. texas less so- it's significantly less heavily enforced- but the intent is certainly fascist.)
#i don't use ideologically-aligned words lightly#for example south carolina's policy is not fascist even though it is very very bad#fascism sensu lato involves localism/xenophobia + appeal to populism despite not being democratic +#authoritarianism (you can't be fascist and lasseiz-faire) + population control (incentivization of more kids usually but other types too)#+ militarism#you can't really be fascist without All of these traits#though these traits generally lead to government bad for the people no matter how many you have
