#americanfascists — Public Fediverse posts

#AmericanFascists is a prescient book written by #ChrisHedges in 2007, which at the time of launch was dismissed as alarmist:

"All it will take, Hedges writes, is one more national crisis on the order of September 11 for the #ChristianRight to make a concerted drive to destroy #Americandemocracy. The movement awaits a crisis. At that moment they will reveal themselves for what they truly are -- the American heirs to #fascism. Hedges issues a potent, impassioned warning. We face an imminent threat. His book reminds us of the dangers liberal, democratic societies face when they tolerate the #intolerant."
