    The solution to that is reform of the government, so that a fascist takeover is harder to do, and the head of state doesn’t have the power to undermine the Judiciary, not killing and mutilating people.

      They don’t actually care about how the government is structured. These fascists recently had the top courts declare anything the president does to be immune from prosecution based on literally nothing. If they are dead then they can’t participate in a fascist takeover, which improves the chance of reforming the government resisting a future fascist takeover.
