Jason Stanley is of the worst and most disingenuous of a now completely discredited profession. All over #Trump whilst in Europe they are banning political opposition left right and centre; whilst the Dems literally conspired to take Trump out; whilst Britain is locking up people for complaining about their local school — and Canada? There are people from East and Central Europe in Canada who grew up under communism, who want to move to the US - to escape what they see as creeping totalitarianism. These are academics. Professors - just like Stanley. He really doesn’t know the first thing about Fascism. If he did - he’d start with Mussolini's first job — editor of the socialist paper Avanti; of the socialist political economy; or the suppression of free speech - or …yes…the antisemitism.
I hate that I was confused on how the evil of the N@Z! doctrine was able to develop without the population doing anything about it and I have to watch how that evil spread in real time.
Think I am past being disappointed in my fellow former vets who proudly proclaimed "Foreign and Domestic over and over again when I was active duty."
I definitely recommend Stanley’s first book How Fascism Works, and am looking forward to reading his latest, Erasing History.
I need to read it!
Try How Communism works.
I truly believe this is also a super important point that also needs to be made when taking about these people, thank you for your work

Thank you for this perspective!
People leaving for a communist country fearing the worst. Give change a chance going to get better. Because Trump cares.
So you have no idea what communism is? Sure
Many more want to flee in the other direction. That’s the truth., Stanley is gas lighting

You stop fascism by fighting it not by running away
