I think at this stage, virtually everyone now acknowledges Trump is like Hitler. After all, the anti-Trump rallies had been more massive than expected, and something like the second biggest protest in US history.
However, for the unconvinced who still doesn't think Trump is fascist. What would have to happen? When social media and other sources of information is democratised. We live in different sets of reality because we are seeing only select sets of facts on to our media feeds, curated by propietary algorithms owned by private interests, to affirm our biases. Once we take away how social media is run by private companies, whose only interest is to anger us and to drive engagement and more ad revenue, we would be able to fully paint the bigger picture.
