I don't think there's anything unusual about the specific power structure now incoming. Our form of authoritarian power operates on a ratchet mechanism. Very occasionally they go too far and we let the ratchet back a few notches but usually the ratchet clicks without many people noticing, and even when it makes a lot of noise, scandals like Iran-Contra, Nisur Square..., we normally don't turn it back at all.
