Everyone lucid in the world is freaking out about the rise of #fascist thinking, well, everywhere.
Why? Didn't we defeat this obscenity 80 years ago after much suffering? Why is it resurging?
The problem is not that people don't learn from history (they don't but that's another issue), the problem is that #fascism is always with us. Since the dawn of time and forever more.
All fascism requires is:
1. ignorance
2. indecency
3. a demagogue to yoke the walnut brains and ride them to power
