@markarayner I've been tracking the 'activation' of these behaviours by UK and USA governments for >10 years. Over 50% have been seen in the last 5.
Although not assessed numerically, I can also see it increasing in at least 3 other leading fossil-fuel-extracting states, and in one seemingly fighting to access a new fossil fuel resource.
It appears that those who are financially dependent on #FossilFuel extraction think they can safely promote and rely on #fascism in puppet governments.
