I mean yes this is bad, but America is not going to end itself just because women have rights. A lot more to it than that reductive take

This is also part of it.

Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy, begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege.
