Zero people quoted or paraphrased in this article express even a hint of belief that Trump's fascist comments are "just his latest public provocation of the left," yet the Times insists on pretending that it is an open question. https://nytimes.com/2023/11/20/us/politics/trump-rhetoric-fascism.html

  Trump’s Dire Words Raise New Fears About His Authoritarian Bent
  
  from By Michael C. Bender and Michael Gold
  
  The former president is focusing his most vicious attacks on domestic political opponents, setting off fresh worries among autocracy experts.
2. screenshot of a New York Times article that reads "Scholars, Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans are asking anew how much Mr. Trump resembles current strongmen abroad and how he compares to authoritarian leaders of the past. Perhaps most urgently, they are wondering whether his rhetorical turn into more fascist-sounding territory is just his latest public provocation of the left, an evolution in his beliefs or the dropping of a veil."
