Your concept of fascism isn't in tune with the actual description of such a system. That description is a condition where business/corporate leadership dictates to the government instead of the government dictating/regulating the processes of business.

When the people's wishes are only legislated 15% of the time while business interests are benefited in 85% of legislation I would state that we have been a fascist nation for some time and we are only seeing a more brazen expression of that from Republicans who respond to their mostly racist and homophobic constituencies to remain in office. There is no real threat to fascism posed by their losing to neoliberal Democrats, so voting our way out of fascism is no longer an option.

If you wouldn't rather have an Eisenhower clone as President than Biden, regardless of party affiliation, you are just as hopeless as an agent of change as the rank and file Republicans that will vote enmass for Trump if given another chance. Google Eisenhower's platform from his last campaign if you doubt that the Democratic party has shifted rightward as fast as the Republicans did.
