Fascism Is Almost Here

John Dean again rippin it about fascism, authoritarianism, and the Bush administration.
He correctly predicts that if another 9/11-sized terrorist attack happens here, authoritarian leaders will accelerate their concentration of power even more, and America will be openly fascist, with the support of most Americans.
It's sick, and authoritarians are in charge of protecting us from terrorists. What about that conflict of interest?

Fascism or not, as the video "freedom from conscience -- psychopaths" points out the psychopath has the traits necessary to scratch his/her way to the top and then create a society that mimics a psychopathic relationship.

If America is fascist it's because we had Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson bring it to us under the guise of "compassion and tolerance."

You can't have fascism without a big centralized government.

USA has been in fascism since 1913 Federal Reserve Act and 1947 National Security Act.

from the very begigning of this nations birth there has been a unqeustioned parralel between so-called democracy and bondage i.e. the indians,irish,orientals& africans. We talk about the constitution&bill of rights as if these are profound documents yet their authors where racist facist who believed in a pure white race...AMERICA IS WHAT IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN!

We're already @ 1984. The focus on that was on propaganda and state police. Brave New World was on, as you said, distracting people from thoughts of freedom or the illusion of it with drugs and distractions.

There were votes in Nazi Germany. And less unemployment and less inflation than FDR's NEW (JEW) Deal policy did. You know what Mussolini prefered to call fascism? CORPORATISM. This is the phraseology you find in all economic texts on Italy and the 3rd Reich. Welcome.

I mean here's a question for everyone. Does voting mean demoncracy? That's what everyone says- but I don't believe it. THere is no democracy in afghanistan or iraq. What do you think?

Yep, but I think we're really heading in Huxley's direction more than Orwell's. The mergers of corporate power are bringing us to a totalitarian system that is incremental and piecemeal, which subtley instills a leveling off of taste and judgment that goes unnoticed. In 1984, people are intimidated into coercion and submission. In Brave New World, the people genuinely believe they are free when in fact, they're not. I hope I'm wrong.

Corporate personhood has been here for probably over a century now.
