We are seeing "How Fascism Works",

Watched on You Tube "How Fascism Works" Big Think, "The 10 tactics of fascism" Jason Stanley talking about how they take over and get power, and it was exactly like what's happening in this country right now. Sorry don't know how to link it here, but very interesting , and alarming.

..... when you watch this short but informative video, you will (if you take an unbiased view) you will see each one of the ten characteristics presented in this 10-minute video that describes how fascism starts and how the lies and mistruths are needed for fascism to take root.

Listen, point by point, and ask yourself where I have seen this in the last six years.

that Republicans are calling Democrats Fascists. I have seen pictures they show each other with Nancy Polosi and Joe
Biden dressed in a Nazi uniform, Biden with a Hitler mustache. I have also heard several Republicans in Congress and right wing media call democrats Fascists. They have a misinformation meme now to define Democrats as Fascists and Communists, those terms are becoming interchangeable leading into their next coup. To the MAGAt Fascism and Communism are just different names for the same thing, both their enemies.
