move the u.s. towards being more like hungary or russia, so that it's easier for fascism to rule
it's a form of accelerationism: burning the country and the world down so that it no lo longer is hospitable to a free society, but is sociologically/economically/etc prone to enable fascist governments

As promised, I did write about this for Arc Digital www.arcdigital.media/p/the-unbear...

I don’t even mean this at the extreme end of authoritarianism. You can go to Budapest and enjoy a weekend the same way you might in Montreal or Paris. Stay in a Hampton, go to a park, shop at an H&M, grab a coffee. But in the background is corruption, a broken rule of law, decreased civil rights.
