They are using not just the same rhetorical frames as the Nazis, they are often using the same exact phrases and propaganda techniques, just in social media. They are seeking/achieving autocratic rule. I don't think they are winning the world on the whole, but they are growing stronger.. They are fascist movements.

Oh no, they've been communicating since before 2016. Just look at the changes to party platform for the GOP that year regarding funding to Ukraine. The new policies, which came directly from Trumps people, reversed course on Ukraine and basically adopted pro-Kremlin positions. And it was out of left field...on alot of policy positions, they didn't comment on shit or even have fully developed positions....but on Ukraine they have a very strong and very pro-Kremlin stance.
