Not for nothing, but a key feature of fascism is that you're "enemy" is both weak and strong at the same time.

So the blackout is not a big deal AND the mods coordinating the blackout are too powerful...

Meh. "Fascism"? That tactic is used in politics all the time against most prominent leaders and groups, no matter where they come from. They're both inept and totally powerful and Machiavellian.

It's the whole thing about "will bear them with humor and ridicule" but also "look at their evil actions".
