"...the potential for fascism lie not at the periphery but at the very heart of modern experience. Fascism is something far deeper than a political form: it correlates with psychological patterns of domination and submission that take shape in earliest childhood and later harden into a syndrome of attitudes regarding hierarchy, power, sexuality, and tradition.
The psyche of a fascist is "authoritarian" in the sense that it attaches itself to figures of strength and disdains those it deems weak. It tends toward conventionalism, rigidity, and stereotypical thinking; it insists on a stark contrast between in-group and out-group, and it jealously patrols the boundaries between them. It is prone to obsession over rumors of immorality and conspiracy, and it represses with self-loathing the sexual licentiousness it projects onto others. In all of these ways, fascism appears as the political manifestation of a pre-political disposition. The authoritarian personality does not always turn explicitly fascist; its politics may remain dormant, only to emerge under certain social-historical conditions. This thesis offers an important corrective to those who prefer to see fascism as discontinuous with liberal-democratic political culture: fascism is not mysterious, and it is not something otherworldly or rare; it is the modern symptom of a psychopathology that is astonishingly widespread and threatens modern society from within."

That's quite interesting. Now, let us talk about senility, which is the big issue confronting us. I see where people suffering from this disease can become angry and violent. And we have seen that in Dementia Joe. So the question is, do we have to worry about Dementia Joe nuking his own country if, say, Congress does not approve spending $2 trillion on the New Green Deal?

Hey piggy: let's talk about willful, deliberate criminal negligence in the face of a worldwide "deadly stuff" epidemic. What will emperor oinkafeller squeal all the way home again....? ------------------------- It's a democratic hoax |

No need to worry about that, Joe doesn't support GND at all. He'll probably support tax advantaged incentives for fortune 500 companies to produce fewer plastic colostomy bags. But back to authoritarian personality. I think it helps explain the unwashed mass trumpers, but doesnt explain those who almost certainly see through trumps con game yet still profess support. Those are the ones i find especially curious. ------------------------- “It is the heart of US policy to use fascism to preserve capitalism while claiming to be saving democracy from communism “ - Michael Parenti |

Those people aren't concerned with what Trump does does for them.
They are concerned with what Trump does to people they don't like. That's why they feel he is a "success" despite his screwing everything up. It's butthurt types who feel downtrodden and want a "big brother" to yell at people they think bullied them. Usually wimpy types with backwards ideas that got their feelings hurt and want revenge, but are too cowardly to do anything themselves. You know, like Tpapski. -------------------------

Remember when he has gone postal with voters? That's the angr part. The guy is a ticking, senile time bomb. And I am not sure that is the worst of it. If he become president, I can see him wondering around the streets of DC butt naked, raving like a lunatic. Has any other country in the world had a senile leader? Remember when he went postal on that auto-union worker asking about gun control?

Yep, that was one of the instances that I was referring to. Look at his face. totally out of control at a guy asking him a simple question. Just think about he might do when he can launch nuclear weapons. If some American company refuses to hire Hunter Biden as a director for a million a year, he might nuke them. Well YEAH! He extorted Ukraine for Hunter....... He used a Judge's removal and US $Billion as leverage. If he doesn't have that using nukes would be a viable option for him. I can easily see that. I saw the video of Biden extorting Ukraine.....not a pretty picture. Looked like a mob boss. ------------------------- The REAL truth is....both of the forum idiots are OWNED. -BOTH of them have no clue who their owner is. -They are both card carrying narcissists. ^These are PROVED facts.
