This started with rioters attacking the legitimate authorities (ICE) as they tried to enforce long-established law that most of the population supports (you can't be in the country without citizenship, visa, or similar authorisation). Escalating to the national guard and ultimately the military is established best practice when the rule of law breaks down in a given locality. No fascism there (if anything, letting rioters run wild as long as they're going after the undesirables is a well known fascist tactic)

Please don’t stoke fires like this. HN isn’t the place for it.
