to be clear, what you said is an extremely obtuse way to say that "people elect fascists when they want a fascist"

people are acting like it's some fucking new world order plot to overthrow the US government with fascism, but like actually, a bunch of idiots with the ability to vote did it.

also, if you wanted to make that statement more generally accurate, "fascism happens when the people feel that traditional government has failed them" since fascism tends to be primarily opportunist by nature.
