Comments by "DXR" (@MrDXRamirez) on "The Trump movement is turning America fascist w/Jeff Sharlet | The Chris Hedges Report" video.

  1. Fascinating and revealing talk. This video brings what is going in America the things we never think about. What are people doing that is fomenting new social movements in America? I think fascism is a word like the Christ; a designation. What it has is an enigma of generalities without real definition that refer to a social movement. Its not a movement that is very clear and specific rather, its abstract and general. The Nazis are different in the sense that they were on a mission to eliminate a race of people. Genocidal racism was a part of the fascism they were. The Klan and Nazis are genocidal fascists. The carpet bombing of poor countries by rich ones is a form of genocidal fascism as well. I think the fascism of the 20th century and that of the 21st century are adaptations of genocide have a position against emancipation by any social class, any self-emancipation is suppressed, targeted a threat to its structured authoritarian form. So many variations of fascism in our society. Military is authoritarian as is the Democratic Party shutting down the convention because Pro-Palestine protesters is an anti-democratic move by the DNC. Authoritarian social structure vary. Family is hierarchical. Children have no rights till 18 is a fascist social practice. All these relations maintain the existence of a perpetual victim is fascism by a wider definition of authoritarianism.
