Jan 20th, 2025 - 09:26 am - Link - Report abuse 0On March 24, 1945, the topic for the week was “FASCISM!”
Americans should not be fooled into thinking that fascism could not come to America, ...
... it was important for Americans to understand the tactics fascists would use to take power in the United States. They would try to gain power “under the guise of ‘super-patriotism’ and ‘super-Americanism.’” And they would use three techniques:
First, they would pit religious, racial, and economic groups against one another to break down national unity. Part of that effort to divide and conquer would be a “well-planned ‘hate campaign’ against minority races, religions, and other groups.”
Second, they would deny any need for international cooperation, because that would fly in the face of their insistence that their supporters were better than everyone else. “In place of international cooperation, the fascists seek to substitute a perverted sort of ultra-nationalism which tells their people that they are the only people in the world who count. With this goes hatred and suspicion toward the people of all other nations.”
Third, fascists would insist that “the world has but two choices — either fascism or communism, and they label as ‘communists’ everyone who refuses to support them.”
It is “vitally important” to learn to spot native fascists, the government said, “even though they adopt names and slogans with popular appeal, drape themselves with the American flag, and attempt to carry out their program in the name of the democracy they are trying to destroy.”

Imagine you being so angry, and unable to refute even the smallest scintilla of what I have proved. That you waste your time on Youtube videos, that have nothing to do with me at all, absolutely pathetic.
Skippy is the sock-puppet of Chicureo a lying fascist.
Chicureo “Although I've defended Pinochet despite his regrettable actions...I support nationalists that are willing to protect their nation ...Just giving the vote to women has resulted in our current nightmare.“
The link between malignant narcissism, racism and fascism
Narcissism was linked to fascism by the father of bioenergetic therapy, Alexander Lowen, in his book, ”Narcissism — Denial of the True Self”
Joe Biden is a terrible idiot. Good riddance! Very good!

From Wikipedia
During his 2024 campaign, Trump has made numerous authoritarian and antidemocratic statements. Trump's previous comments, such as suggesting he can ”terminate“ the Constitution to reverse his election loss, his claim that he would only be a dictator on ”day one“ of his presidency and not after, his promise to use the Justice Department to go after his political enemies, and his plan to use the Insurrection Act of 1807 to deploy the military in Democratic cities and states, have raised concerns over Trump's rhetoric.
Trump has stated that he would deploy the military on American soil to fight ”the enemy from within“, which he describes as ”radical left lunatics“ and Democratic politicians such as Adam Schiff. His political rhetoric since 2016 has been based on a us vs them framework, with the in-group being defined as ”real Americans“ and the rival, out-groups ...
Trump has repeatedly voiced support for outlawing political dissent and criticism he considers misleading or challenges his claims to power. After General Mark Milley said that Trump would start persecuting his political opponents if he won the 2024 presidential election, Trump suggested that Milley should be executed for treason, with Republican representative Paul Gosar further stating that, in a better society, ”sodomy-promoting General Milley would be hung“. Retired general Barry McCaffrey said, regarding Trump's statements, that ”what we are seeing is a parallel to the 1930s in Nazi Germany“. Trump's formal policy plan for a second term, Agenda 47, has been characterized as fascist. Historian Ruth Ben-Ghiat stated that the similarities between the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 and Mussolini's ”Laws for the Defense of the State“, which transformed Italy into a repressive regime, are ”striking”, citing the elimination of judicial independence and the strengthening of executive authority.
