      Read the title again.

      Biden didn’t do anything.

      He was “urged” to do something by someone else.

          Not to mention the way “gatekeepers” is used inside the article to refer to the media companies that are being targeted, and not the EU gatekeeping those companies’ practices within the EU. This story is designed to be misleading all around.

          No Republican would’ve fought for Amtrak expansion as hard as Biden has.

          Just out of curiosity, what do you think the mainstream repubs and the MAGA people are then, by comparison?

                how about the textbook, which fits perfectly

                utahoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy

                  I don’t know about perfectly, I don’t see the hallmark ultranationalism in Biden, and he also seems to care about election results, which makes dictator a little harder to say. I also don’t see force being used to suppress his opposition, since Trump is still free and able to defend himself. Few others, but those are the big ones.

                    He didn’t call Biden a fascist; he called the (current-ideology) Republicans fascists and he called Biden a (previous-ideology) Republican.

                    In other words, he’s saying that the politicians are shifted one category to the right of where they claim to be.
