This is the best summary I have
seen of fascism's core factors. It was authored by a retired University
of California, San Diego professor of Sociology. Here is a quote
regarding the 10 items he lists. "I
have thought endlessly about this core issue for most of my adult life,
but I do not pretend to be a ruler dictating such things. There are
good arguments for different rankings of the core index factors,
certainly because there have been real historical differences in fascist
systems, like in democracy systems. I have used the Nazi, Italian, and
US fascist systems as my main historical examples for constructing this
core index and have used the US as the most important fascist system,
since it is the one that threatens all of mankind today." He also says
that "The US fascism system pretends to be drastically different from
German and Italian fascism, but is a corporatist, totalitarian, party
system masquerading as the 'welfare state' for all the people and so on
down the index. The US Is much more like Italian, Mussolini, fascism
than like Hitler's ruler-dominated party." Carefully consider what he
says and compare his remarks to what's happening all around us. George

It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
