They’re everywhere now!
It was an exciting and terrifying day when the announcement was made that, in the next year, they would be opening one less than twenty minutes away.
I remember when their initial expansion in BR was a big deal. They took over the building of a Fast Track my dad would often take me to. Now it’ll be dangerously within easy reach at an age when I should probably stop eating it.
I read your description and think of a city from where I grew up before I realize it could literally be any mid-sized water-adjacent city.
And, yes, I agree with your assessment of what has happened to that half-mile-away street.

I have a lot of (new, not classical) liberal friends and tend to trawl liberal and progressive-adjacent spaces on the internet. I’ve seen and heard an uptick in references to electing Trump leading to “white Christian fascism” or a “Christian fascist dictatorship”. It is those exact phrases.
I’ve tried to google the phrases and where this line of thought originated but the internet is awash in fascism-related commentary on Trump in general, none of it which specifically utilizes the exact phrase “white Christian fascism” or “Christian fascist dictatorship”. Would any of you have an idea of where this began?
In case you just hand wave to general news coverage, I should note that I do not read or watch mainstream news. I work in a policy-related position and tend to read (almost never watch) primarily trade-related publications with WSJ, FT, The Motte, and StupidPol forming the bulk of my general news sources.
