The thread about the Mormon church attacker got me thinking about the Chicago ICE yakkety sax routine chasing the delivery cyclist.
"At least he made the trains run on time," said of Mussolini, is an excellent example of the reality of fascism. It's a mix of propaganda claiming things are better than they are, and authoritarians stampeding over people to create the illusion of progress.
Fascism creates a protected class of bullies who can ignore all the rules that slow down "progress" by ensuring things like safety, property rights, and civil rights. The move fast because they trample things, not because they are good at what they're doing.
The gravy seals at ICE are the perfect example. They're putting a lot of people in jail, but they keep getting released because they haven't actually done anything wrong. And the ICE guys in action are unprofessional and disorganized. They're not even proficient thugs.
