Both parties are nearly fascist. Both support genocide in Palestine and slaughter at the border. Biden has done more against his supposed promises than for. In the end, I don’t care if you vote. It doesn’t take that long, it won’t matter, and you shouldn’t fret about getting out the vote or something. Energy is best spent outside of electoralism, but you can engage a bit if you want.

"Nearly" fascist is giving those peckerwoods a LOT more leeway than they deserve

At what number of Palestinians does it cross from nearly to fully. I am always wondering but it's all moot. They would run cover for fascists even if the entire global south was gone. "Look I know we wiped out the bolivians, but the lithium we stole (we could have paid for it btw) allowed us to go green and save humanity".

That’s colonialism, not specifically fascism. Liberalism is so bad I don’t know when it ends and fascism begins honestly.

True, the terms signify location and subjects is all, but yes you are correct.

To your question about liberalism and fascism: Aime Cesaire said it best, no difference between a liberal in the colonies and a fascist in Europe.
