  • Far-right: No

Both US republicans and democrats are very much far right by any sensible standard

  • Dictatorial: No

Read the study I linked above which clearly shows that US political system works in the interest of the elites, that's what a dictatorial system looks like.

  • Ultranationalist: NoI

LMFAO imagine thinking that US isn't ultranationalist

  • Supports centralized autocracy: No

Again, see study above

  • Forcibly suppresses opposition: No

All alternative parties are effectively excluded from participating in the US

  • Believes individual interests should be sacrificed for the perceived good of the nation: No

LMAO, covid response where Biden admin sacrificed countless vulnerable people for the sake of the economy begs to differ

I think you and I are talking past each other. Your personal definitions for these words, based on your examples, are far too broad, in my opinion. I do not think there's anything on this topic that we can agree upon if we can't agree what these words mean.

Take care.

I'm not using personal definitions for any words, and I've even provided you a study analyzing decades of US policy supporting my points. If we can't agree on basic and obvious facts of the situation then any meaningful discussion of the subject is indeed impossible.

Take care.
