@valoisa Tosin taitaa olla niin, että ensimmäisenä saman totuuden lausui #UmbertoEco Matka arkipäivän epätodellisuuteen -kirjassaan.

It's timeless. You can read it not often enough. It's important. Umberto Ecos whole #essay about #UrFascism. Eco composed the text for a speech at a conference at Columbia University on April 25th 1995 under the rubric "Eternal Fascism". https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/umberto-eco-ur-fascism

I see yet another thread where reasonable and respectful users receive undeserved accusations, getting silenced by other users who aren't even trying to understand.

When this happens, #UmbertoEco's words come to my mind.

In his #UrFascism essay he talked about the #Resistance movement in Italy.
A key figure in the fight against Mussolini was #EdgardoSogno. He wasn't a #Communist, rather a reactionary monarchist. Yep, that's right.

Divisions only make us weaker.

Only a few titles of his I have not read now, and every one stirs the semiotician in me. A fantasy-history of the 12th century when a language-gifted peasant boy stumbles through crusader history: what power the word in this place?

Some background about #LawrenceBritt 's #CharacteristicsOfFascism, which was sold (but not displayed) at the Holocaust Museum. The article does NOT mention that Britt's list was obviously based on #UmbertoEco's version. Oh well...

Fact check: 'Early Warning Signs Of Fascism' sign was once sold at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum

Sarah Lynch, July 2020

"While a poster with the “Early Warning Signs Of Fascism” was indeed previously sold in the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum Shop, it did not originate from the museum and was not part of any exhibition or display. Britt wrote the words in a 2003 article in Free Inquiry, which Syracuse Cultural Workers reprinted and sold with his permission."

The original poster is still being sold here:
