How will you know when the fascism "tipping point" is reached?
The "tipping point" being when the USA is closer to fascism than it is to democracy. We've seen the "Our Leader" billboards, the conspicuous patriotism, the licensed hate. Total dominance of all three branches of government is now within their sights, and dissent has been purged from the cabinet - and is being purged from the CIA. A draft is in the air.

Where's the tipping point?

7. They will be without the bob-wahr, and we shall be physically within,
but their mental imprisonment shall be, and already is, infinitely worse.

8. In 2006 when electronic voting machines will give the fascist a 60-40
majority in the Senate!

Then it's pretty much all over and a complete one party fascist rule.
