my concern was that, is that really quantifiable evidence of fascism?
its more a symptom of plutocratic classism with intersection with racism.
the aim of Voter IDs is not to coalesce power into the hands of one leader and the absolute control or establishment of strict order of society… but to diminish the capacity of the more populous, poor of the country to influence the affairs of government that threaten to undermine the state granted privileges of the wealthy.
They wouldn’t want to totally control the poor and the minorities or how they live, they would actually prefer to preserve the freedom they feel the poor enjoy, but only greatly reduce their share in governance. The rich care so little for how the poor and minorities in the country go about their lives, they only care if it gets in the way of their own interests
Calling it fascist and likening it to nazis and shit just obfuscates that and makes it all the more difficult in addressing and fighting it.
The Republican Party has had a tough time bridging the gap to minority voters - and it will likely continue to do so for a long time. As the Demographic Destiny™ sought by the Democrats through mass immigration dwindles their power base, the Republicans will need to win over larger and larger shares of whites to remain in power.
…and they can do that, to a degree. We won’t like the side effects, but, surprise, I’m not in favor of mass migration.
