I didn’t mention legislative actions. There’s an overwhelming consensus among experts on authoritarianism (not just US experts, in case you were hoping to dismiss those experts as partisan hacks) that the US is currently in a transition from democracy to authoritarianism. I won’t argue this point with you for the same reason I won’t argue the reality of the climate crisis.

You are misquoting me: my question does not start with “why”. You added that word out of thin air, completely changing the meaning of my question.

I never said that either. You must be confusing my post with another.
