I don't know how much of a hot take this might be, but at least to me, it do be feeling like zionism is just socially acceptable fascism anymore.

I have some quibbles with american fascism thesis (i think america is basically post-fascist/dormant fascist state), but active settlerism seems like a missing accelerator for this transformation into something nazi-adjacent.

I like the idea of calling it dormant fascist, it feels like a solid way of putting it to me. We do need a term to refer to the way it inches toward fascism slowly but when pushed lashes out full "blood and soil" style in fits and starts before recoiling a bit after the situation calms down. That behavior is specific to outlining and seeing it as an immuno response of capitalism, in my eyes anyway.
