Why am I reminded of Chancellor Palpatine just now.?

An administrative state ridiculously top heavy with bureaucracy that is fundamentally inept, and has outgrown, and defies most efforts by elected officials to address dysfunction, is a ripe fruit for fundamental transformation.
Usually into something worse than before.
Just ask the Weimar Republic.

American progressives are government supremacists, and in regards to information handling, see themselves as the supreme authority on truth.
Facts, and "good" facts are parceled out as needed for the sake of social engineering.
Under that pretext, the government can arbitrate with extreme prejudice, and little fear of reprisal.
The only thing keeping progressives from absolute ownership of the narrative in all but name is a document peppered with negative rights that errs on the side of the citizenry for the sake of a grass root, ground up approach to organizing, and advancing community.

Again, an old problem.
Subversive Marxism 101 calls for the infiltration and eventual control of infrastructure like education, media, tort culture, and healthcare.
That last one is a fundamental pillar of authoritarian socialism.
When your urologist doubles as an agent of the state, they have you by the balls for sure.
