Reading through that strengthed the similarity to your idrology and the NSDAP. As some who studies Weimar history and the NSDAP (from 1918 to 1945). Josef Goebells head of propaganda knew the importance of controlling the media. They went after newspapera radios and anything with a differing viewpoint.

Slowly they disposed of the communist and socialist during the Reichstag Fire aftermath. The NSDAP then choked the liberals and conservatives and finally banned any current and new polutical party. Shutting down news channels is just a (non fallacious) slippery slope. History tends to repeat itself.
