It really does matter for circumventing or over-ruling the constitutional order that you have another “card” to play that your paramilitary is independently answerable to you and not just because your guy is currently head of state.
i didn’t say police = fascism i critiqued using nonstate paramilitaries as a definitional point of fascism. a recurring point of ICE using unmarked personnel is to grant carte blanche to nonstate actors–what a comfort it will be to be black bagged by a neonazi with the reassurance it isnt fascism since a three-letter agency did it first
