    na·tion·al·ism noun identification with one’s own nation and support for its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations. Dems support the US to the detriment of other nations pretty consistently… Iraq and Afghanistan for example.

    Dustin for human rights… Recent protests against genocide ring a bell? And that’s just in the US itself.

    Supremecy of the military… I don’t see many Dems voting or speaking against increasing the bloated military budget

    Sexism… I’ll give you this one, but I don’t really think people like Clinton are fighting sexism, they’re just warping it

    Controlled mass media… Self evident

    National security… Didn’t they just agree to continue Trump’s stupid ass wall? Aren’t they still locking up asylum seekers?

    Religion and government… They pretty much all lean into being Christians (but at least a few of them aren’t Christians)

    Corporate power… Yep

    Labor… Yep

    Intellectuals and the arts… As long as they agree with them… Again see recent protests

    Crime and punishment… Has Biden closed down the for profit prison system? Did I miss that?

    Corruption… Obviously

    Election fraud… The Clinton Bernie primary was pretty fraudulent in my book

    I think you’re confusing the Dems being ever so slightly less fascist than the Republicans, with them being not fascist
