Basically exactly what the top says. I want something that screams COMING OF AGE except instead of a teen movie like most coming of age stories, I want an image that showcases coming into 84-year-old-ness

Fascism is capitalism in decay, it arises out of a failed capitalist society that was promised greatness and doesn't seem to be achieving it.

Fascism is also famously anti-intellectual, appealing to stereotypes, constantly needing enemies, internal and external, as easy scapegoats for the failures of capitalism.

The average adult literacy level in America is now that of a 5th grader, a 10 or 11 year old.

20% of adult Americans are functionally illiterate, reading at a 2nd grade level of worse.

The European stereotype of the boisterous, ignorant, brutish, entitled American didn't go far enough.
