The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact. Their newspapers and propaganda carefully cultivate every fissure of disunity, every crack in the common front against fascism.

A fascist is one whose lust for money or power is combined with such an intensity of intolerance toward those of other races, parties, classes, religions, cultures, regions or nations as to make him ruthless in his use of deceit or violence to attain his ends.

Until democracy in effective enthusiastic action fills the vacuum created by the power of modern inventions, we may expect the fascists to increase in power after the war both in the United States and in the world.

It is quite remarkable how this man was able to foresee what the future might hold.

We must not tolerate oppressive government or industrial oligarchy in the form of monopolies and cartels.

Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.
Albert Einstein
I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.
Albert Einstein
If I might make a suggestion, once fascism has taken hold in the house, it might be best to burn the whole house down.

The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information.

Lies are becoming the truth. This is the age of disinformation.
Populists and right-wingers use propaganda, misinformation, and distortion of facts. This is also used by dictators.
The world is flooded with lies to gain and hold power. And they don't compromise with anyone who disrupts them. Human rights and equality are a waste of time. Those who don't fit the world picture are deported, imprisoned, sentenced, and locked away. Based on the exceptions indicated by those in power, martial law can be imposed.
Power is seized,
the state is reorganized,
crises are created at home,
threats are made, and people are purged.
The seizure of power is consolidated through intolerance, and all state positions will be filled anew.
Wow, the Third Reich is back, didn't the Americans sacrifice their sons to get rid of it?
