Did you add the underlines? I need to determine who to chastise for missing two that are also obvious issues in the US right now.
Yea it's kinda hilarious those two are skipped
When everything is underlined, nothing is.
It was Danish-American entertainer Eddie Skoller.
You're gonna have a hard time chastising him though, given that he's been dead since August.
How about "powerful and continuing"? That's another worrying thing about the US.
It really pisses me off how right-wingers will look at this and believe they can honestly identify left-leaning politics as fascist by all of these indicators
Trum is already venerated as the second coming of crist, I think politics and religion have intertwined enough
ITT we rehash Umberto Eco.
The actual essay about this isn't much longer than the meme that was posted, and wiki covers all of it including links to the actual essay: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ur-Fascism
But you say it can't happen here
Edit: changed it to literally every place you can find the podcast so as not to discourage those that have issue with certain platforms
Lol I Heart Radio is a Clear Channel company and one of the largest Republican doners
Which is a big part of why the people behind It Could Happen Here and Behind The Bastards broke away from them and started their own company.
I'll add their direct link too, however iheart and apple are the two podcast links most people have access to.
Personally, I use the Pocket Casts app to both find, follow and listen to podcasts from any publisher or lack of same. It's free, it's easy, and the only interaction with awful corporations that want to sell my data is some easily skippable ads 🙂
Lol there's no ethical consumption within capitalism. We're all trying out best, focus on mutual aid and praxis more than smugness, no?
Rampant sexism
Does this indicate fascism is largely a male thing? Or have female fascists oppressed men as well?
Fascism is greatly concerned with overt displays of power, "honor," physical strength as a core value instead of reason or integrity, that kind of thing.
That's not fully incompatible with femaleness, but it does tend to work out in practice as a male-dominated system that features subjugation of women, of a piece with its subjugation of anything else that's vulnerable in any way.
Fascists try to enforce what they view as "natural" hierarchies. The obvious one is that their race is superior to the other races, but also that the male role is strength and leadership while the female role is servitude and homemaking. Because of this, female fascists tend to go all in on the racial and class based hierarchies, since that pushes poor and minority women under them. Thats why you get women such as Mary Sophia Allen who was a hard core suffragette turned fascist in the UK. When she saw she wouldn't get equal rights as men, she pivoted to trying to crush Indian and African women in the UK.
I think it'd be fair to say it's typically male. That doesn't mean women don't Embrace fascism though.
The (usually white) female version of an Uncle Tom.
All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing agaisnt the state
Lawrence W Britt is a journalist who wrote the original version of this list in 2003 for a secular humanist magazine called Free Inquiry. It's been used mostly by the left since then, but oddly also by the far right in some cases.
