Fascist governments always collapse eventually because of loyalty over competence, but the thought of the damage a powerful country like the US would do before that collapse is terrifying.

I mean, Russia has been a fascist country for 30 years now and they haven't collapsed

I questioned if I should add more context, but people will suffer a lot of hardship if the global economy is flipped upside down. It's not the rich assholes I worry about, it's the common person who will struggle to find a job or buy milk.
