Except where it IS implemented…
Like legalizing weed, same slow ass path.
A few liberal areas do it, slow or scared folks see it is beneficial, it spreads, it becomes a topic at the federal level and has caught on enough that it is just an inevitably…assuming the government doesn’t somehow become christofascist because of some ignorant morons…but that is an edge case.

This does not logically follow. Policy is not implemented because it is “popular” or “talked about,” but because it serves a material interest to the corporate donors of the DNC and GOP.

Is that your analysis of fascism? That it exists because of Chrisitanity, and Christianity exists because someone thought of it?
Fascism is Capitalism in decay. It’s a violent defense mechanism, not a mold that infects people’s minds. America is heading down the fascist path regardless of who is in power because Capitalism is dying.
First bit is what has actually happened.
Second bit isn’t “an analysis” and your last paragraph would have Voltare rolling, but also isn’t relevant.
Out of morbid curiosity, I’d love to hear your fantasy world path forward for the country.
It benefits the DNC and GOP to let minor implementations of a toothless change pass so that people feel like they are making a differance.
Second bit is absolutely analysis, you claimed fascism happens if the fascists get elected. Where did the fascists come from, and why would they get elected?
As for a path forward, I’m a Communist, revolution is necessary. Join an org like FRSO or PSL.
Communism isn’t about picking a model and copying it, that idea was abandoned in the 1800s. Engels wrote an entire essay on it, Socialism: Utopian and Scientific. We can look to AES states and see where they found success and failure, but no AES state thus far has come from anything comparable to the 2024 US Empire’s unique material conditions and productive structures, so obviously we can’t copy any one country one to one, nor would we want to.
Ranked choice will not save anyone, nor is it even going to be established in the US.

Which successful communist country should your America emulate?
