The point I was making is that:-

Using lawfare to try to take out a political opponent (ridiculous NY charge with no precedent, no victim, and from a DA who was famous for reducing felonies to misdemeanours but for Trump did the opposite)

Applying govt pressure to social media companies to censor content (twitter files etc)

Using the intelligence apparatus to try to take out a political opponent (russian collusion hoax, fake dossier)

Relying on the media lies to maintain power (border is secure, Biden is mentally competent etc)

Well these are all features of Stalin, Putin, the CCP and now the modern Democrat party.
