Not really
Italian Fascism, while very racist, wasn’t that much racist than the French, American or British empires at the time, they only adopted severely racist laws under pressure from Nazi Germany. They still did horrifically racist actions without Nazi Germany but it wasn’t a comprehensive cornerstone political programme like the Nazis
And if you stretch your definition of fascism, the Estado Novo regime also featured very little race segregationist ideology with a lot of Estado Novo propaganda considering their colonies to be part of Portugal proper(although it was racist in practice just on the basis of being a colonial empire like the Italians)
The Japanese Empire also promoted the idea of the “co prosperity sphere” for all asian peoples
Tl;dr: Racism is very complementary to fascism, but it isn’t something that’s unique to it, many other capitalist societies did the same race policies that fascist regimes did

To add further depth to this notion:
Besides outright violent exclusion, the less-than-Nazi-Racist fascisms of something like Esatado Novo attempted to create a program of the nation as a whole community, from Africa to Europe, against local or regional class interests at home or even abroad. At a surface level program of image, Angolans were expected to fulfill their duty as being members of the Portuguese community and keep quiet based in part of the same vague bourgeoisie promise of “if we all get along, we’ll be rich”. This sort of politics can be extended out to other regimes: if the Blacks just settled into their role in society than South Africa would be fine. If the Koreans and Taiwanese just accepted being Japanese they would be fine. If the Blacks just accepted that the Whites have their best interests in mind Rhodesia would be fine.
It of course serves to attempt to hide the social and political contradictions that underlie colonial and capitalist exploitation. But are hardly unique in-and-of-themselves to Fascism. And it’s worth pointing out the small caveat that makes any generalized list of “rules” or “features” of ideological Fascism that makes Ur-Fascism a unrealized, and self-admitted useless text, and everything that comes out of it:
These features cannot be organized into a system; many of them contradict each other, and are also typical of other kinds of despotism or fanaticism.
To also keep going and reference back earlier: the segregationist plans of George Wallace were hardly unique, are never unique, and will never be unique to him. He’s merely a popularly known figure of what was a great hundred-year institution of the end of the Civil War and the failures of Reconstruction. Which came into being as a notion among even mild-mannered liberals of the 1860’s that Black and White society have to be independent; if not for deranged and false ethnologic reasons, then because the fact slavery existed at all and made the two populations entirely antagonistic to one another. The program began almost immediately on the succession of Andrew Johnson to the precedency after Lincoln’s death. It wasn’t ever master-minded by modern politicians of the mid-20th century but a program allowed to exist under liberalism in alliance with the aristocratic revanchism of the South to simply move on past an otherwise grand and progressive war.

So if I’m understanding everything right, DeSantis has just given Disney the best deal they could ever ask for.
Before, sure they governed their own little city-state but was on the hook for their own maintenance fees. And in this time they racked up billions in debt.
DeSantis tried punish Disney for pretending to care about gay people by stripping them of their self-governance, even declaring “The corporate kingdom has come to an end.” So like a day later after that specifically worded statement, the outgoing board meant to oversee Disney used a Republican trick when losing power and invoked a “royal loves” clause to strip the incoming board of DeSantis cronies of basically all power.
So now Disney isn’t on the hook for its previous debts, apparently not on the hook for the things that put it in those debts, Disney is likely to see it’s profits soar.

And even better, when members of the board whined about that move being unfair, Disney issued a statement pointing out that “all agreements signed between Disney and the district were appropriate and were discussed and approved in open, noticed public forums in compliance with Florida’s Government in the Sunshine law”.
In other words, because the Reps couldn’t even bother to pay attention to the prior district meetings, they found out about the assfuck they took weeks after the fact.

As is the running theme with DeSantis, after he inevitably gets BTFO any and every time he stands up to people with power he squirms back to his greatest hits: bullying people without power.
In this case he’s extending his ire from migrants to people who help migrants, making it illegal to house or transport undocumented immigrants.
Undocumented immigrants account for like 4% of Florida’s population. And you can be arrested for something as simple as inviting them to a house party or even hitchhiking.

I will concede that I am not omniscient, but I do what I can. Hold on.
If we’re going strictly by their funding, then, well…
Compared to…
But, then again, it varies wildly depending on what kind of private school you go to, but I do think that this shows numbers aren’t THAT dissimiliar. Some, sure. But not a collossal amount.
Besides that, well…
I will quote a highilight from the article, but not the entire thing. Have a link to it if you want to read it all.
https://reason.com/2023/02/15/bad-schools-arent-always-underfunded/
Why doesn’t more money always help schools improve? Mainly, the answer is that failing yet well-funded schools often simply aren’t spending their money wisely.
“More money can help schools succeed, but not if they fritter those extra resources in unproductive ways,” Jay Greene, a senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation, told Reason. “There is no one formula for how to spend money correctly in schools. But there are many common ways that schools blow resources. Wasteful schools tend to hire more non-instructional staff while raising the pay and benefit costs for all staff regardless of their contribution to student outcomes. If you fully disconnect compensation from performance, you can raise salaries and benefits endlessly without anyone learning more.”
While making good spending choices can help close some of the gap between affluent and non-affluent schools, it’s worth noting that student poverty has a large effect on school performance. At Carmel High School, for example, only 10 percent of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunches. At George Washington Community High School in Indianapolis, 66 percent of students are eligible.
Oh, silly me. This one is the really good highlight of the article.
Many charter schools outperform local public schools even with much lower per-pupil spending—and, in many cases, more low-income students. The difference is that charter schools are incentivized to make good fiscal decisions because parents can leave if they feel their child’s needs aren’t being met.
“Because charter schools are more accountable to parents for results, they tend to use their uses more effectively in ways that accomplish the results parents are seeking,” Greene added.
As long as parents—especially low-income parents without the ability to move to another school district—only have the option of sending their child to a local public school, it’s difficult to imagine irresponsible spending habits changing anytime soon.
See, that’s what exactly what I was saying earlier. The private market has to show results. If your child isn’t coming out better at the school, then you can leave. If they do not produce results, their industry runs the risk of failing. Public schools, however, just get money from the government every year to pay for their bills, and it typically is not influenced by their performance.
Additionally, in case Seamus’ video didn’t accurately explain it, or you did not watch it.
Public schools have a monopoly on the education of impressionable children, and are of course filled with them taking credit for things that they were barely involved with. Like ending child labor, giving us a 40 hour work week, and ending the great depression. And people on both sides of the political spectrum have used it to spread disinformation about the opposing side.

Don’t get too excited. Because our legal system is broken and incredibly inefficient, it will probably take a year or more for Trump to be convicted, if he is convicted at all.

You say that like we shouldn’t be excited it even got this far, or that if it becomes live, the entire court system will show its balls on stream if they don’t punish Trump justly.

All legal proceedings are politically motivated by their nature.
Covid should’ve let Trump win in a landslide thanks to the Rally Around The Flag effect. Governors across the country saw their own approval ratings go up thanks to it.
But Trump bungled it so hard he took as easy re-election and turned it into a sound defeat.

Had he taken the pandemic seriously, he could’ve handily won a second term. Then he’d be the one to have to face the consequences of his 1st-term policy choices, like his 2020 OPEC deal to get the oil supply cut on the grounds that low gas prices are “bad for American business,” the stepped expiration of his tax cuts on middle to low income earners, the Afghanistan withdrawal, the rail deregulation.

Not to mention apparently new evidence appeared showing Trump didn’t give the money to her. Michael did it out of his own pocket and Trump never reimbursed him for it. So yeah I don’t think he’ll get convicted. It’s just the dems getting fuel to fight him next year.

It’s one of those snooty pedantic things, but yes. Laws and the legal system were crafted with political motivations behind it, so trying to discredit an arrest or indictment as politically motivated is redundant and not the “own” media heads think it is.
So yes the short version is you are in fact the victim of a political hitjob when you are ticketed for speeding.
