That article needs to be re-ordered. Starting off with the political violence doesn't make a coherent connection to fascism. Lots of politics, or political situations, are violent, and have nothing to do with fascism. They should start with the cult of personality, then the Dehumanization and racism, then the Jan 6 and other political violence. If you're going to draw the parallels to fascism, then do it in the same order fascism evolves. They didn't start with gas chambers and invading the neighbors, that's just where the process inevitably goes.
