In simple terms what is fascism? Where is it most prevalent in America at this time?

I won't explain what they do, but I'll tell ya what they don't do. Let you vote them out of office.

It's a broad term that has become synonymous with everything from totalitarianism to bigotry.
It was originally a specific economic system in Italy involving putatively private companies who served the state. That is a simplistic explanation, but if we're going to use the term fascist instead of just authoritarian etc then we should go back to what made fascism specifically fascism. Fascist Italy came to have most of the attributes of Nazi Germany. So it's understandable that people started calling the whole thing fascist.
Where it exists most in this country--albeit it in nascent form still--would be Twitter, Facebook, Amazon, Google, and Apple. Banks too big to fail. Military industrial complex. Etc. Eta: MSM. The Fed. Fannie/Freddie/Sallie.
I could go all day. Maybe not so nascent.

Raw authoritarian power and subjugation.
Symbolized by the faces, which are on either side of the flag behind the speaker's podium.

A picture is worth a thousand words.
They are most prevalent in non-sunbelt regions.

I've heard anything from a type or style of gov. to an economic system.

Basically it's calling people fascist, then stopping them to freely travel on public roads or shooting them in the head for thinking every life matters.
shite like that.
