@DeweyOxberger these are excellent summaries and book recommendations! ❤️ I found the synopsis of #HowFascismWorks particularly resonant with a situation I've been recently managing.

As the article is Trump-centric I also want to point to a particular kind of modern fascism adjacent to the IDW / CultureWars / 'Jordan Peterson crowd' etc who describe themselves as "dissenting Nazis" and disavow Trump whilst borrowing on a whole lot of new-age communitarian rhetoric. So, competing flavours.

“US politicians’ attitudes toward crime policy and social welfare programs, that this willful ignorance is not benign. It has an unstated purpose—to create the conditions that allow racist stereotypes to flourish, so that politicians can continue to exploit fascist tactics for electoral gain.”

#fascism #scapegoat
When a people are demoralized, abused, othered, & have less opportunities to work, their mental health suffers and behaviors become reactive, fear and anger based, to no fault of their own, & negative stereotypes get reinforced, bc of the systemic hate, thus the cycle of the scapegoat. The perpetrators lies become the fascist version of ‘truth’.

I’m reading #HowFascismWorks by #JasonStanley and he reminds me that a “national shift to “majority-minority”country SIGNIFICANTLY increased politically unaffiliated white Americans’ support for right-wing policies.”
They see it as a “threat to their dominant (social, economic, political, and cultural)
status.”

“The exploitation of the feeling of victimization, by dominant groups”…” is a universal element of contemporary intl fascist politics.”

Ergo, IMO—low or no empathy in this mind set.

#ConspiracyTheory (CT)–“aimed at some out-group and in the service of some in-group.”

“To denigrate & delegitimize their targets by connecting them SYMBOLICALLY to problematic acts.”

“They’re so outlandish…they can hardly expect to be believed…Their function is to raise general suspicion..”

“Used to delegitimize the mainstream media.” (So they appear biased). Until, for instance, they #FoxNews promote the conspiracy theories.

CT influence perception of reality

“Political #propaganda uses the language of virtuous ideals to unite people behind otherwise objectionable ideals.”

“Democratic rhetoric w/ Undemocratic intent.”

Nixon’s #WarOnCrime
Trump’s #DrainTheSwamp
Attack #RuleOfLaw in the name of anti corruption whilst corrupt
Protect freedom whilst oppressing others–
Free speech but seeking to fire players who kneel for antiracism

Freedoms end w #fascist victory

#fascist politics in the USA is a politics of hierarchy—#WhiteSupremacy

“If one can convince a population that they are rightfully exceptional, that they are destined by nature or by religious fate to rule other populations, one has already convinced them of a monstrous lie.”

#Neusprech #HowFascismWorks »An Floridas Universitäten dürfen Programme für Vielfalt und Inklusion nicht mehr öffentlich finanziert werden. Sie stünden für "Diskriminierung, Ausschluss und Indoktrination", behauptete der extrem rechte Gouverneur Ron DeSantis.«

4. UNREALITY Facts are debased, and without a common understanding of reality reasoned debate becomes impossible. #howfascismworks2. PROPAGANDA The language of democratic ideals takes on corrupted, opposite meanings. Corrupt politicians run anti-corruption campaigns; freedom of speech claims are used to suppress speech. #howfascismworks3. ANTI-INTELLECTUAL - Universities are branded as incubators of liberalism, Marxism, and feminism. Expertise no longer has any value. #howfascismworks
