Comment on China aims to recruit top US scientists as Trump tries to kill the CHIPS Act
umbrella@lemmy.ml 5 weeks agoi struggle to believe that politicians, especially the sitting president on the biggest empire in the world, won’t ruin their go at power simply because of that. i dont think their followers are putting out good analysis either.

Trump is a narcissist. Fascism is historically a direct result of narcissists getting into power.

i don’t think his personality traits are that relevant.
fascism tends to put narcissists and other specific types of people in power, but they are put there by capitalism when they need such a leader. fascism is not an organic and normal thing to happen to people.
historically that happens whenever the US invades you to bring democracy or when crisis that shakes the very core of the system looms.
