Fascism: a governmental system having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism.

This sure seems to fit. Mean things are said about this administration and so it goes after tech companies. Frankly, these are private companies and are under no obligation to provide fairness one way or another. GOP sources picked on and killed the “fairness doctrine” rules in the 80s and 90s as over burdensome regulation, and yet here we are in 2018.

Finally, they have explicit terms for the community. If sources espouse lies, racism, or violence, they can be kicked off. Individuals agree to those terms and when punished, act gobsmacked and persecuted. No, they violated the terms. Take some responsibility.
