This just reminds me of that old trope:

Q: "Are you a spy?"

A: "No."

Q: "Hmm, that's just what a spy would say!"


It's true that if things are headed towards fascism and you tell people, they'll tell you to stop overreacting. But if things are not headed towards fascism and you tell people they are, they'll also tell you to stop overreacting.

In this case if someone told me that things in the US are headed towards fascism, I'd say "well yeah, obviously". But, if someone else told you to stop overreacting, you couldn't draw any conclusions from that.
