Fascism creeps in slowly at first, gets normalized, and accelerates until it is too strong to defeat. We who value democracy, freedom, and the rule of law must sound the alarm.
Excellent point about John Stanley’s book. I had presented that at a men’s book club, but had forgotten how he characterizes fascist *tactics* vs a fascist state, which is harder to define. Definitely, the GOP is using fascist tactics and has to be stopped.
I agree and find this frightening. Working with African asylum seekers for 7 years I am appalled at the dehumanization. This has been a long time coming as we reduce the middle class into poverty and then enslave the poor.

Why don’t we just run on addressing the things that people say are their top priorities?
