      Before we elected Trump, the fascism was still nascent. Ur-Fascism as Eco called it.

      It’s dishonest to pretend that this is the same level of fascism that we’ve been experiencing for decades. It’s not. Trump and the Heritage Foundation kicked it into overdrive.

        You know what’s dishonest? Not acknowledging most governments have been fascists for decades.
