More warning signs of Fascism
Edited on Mon Dec-05-05 06:12 PM by ck4829
A Professor a while back made 14 signs of Fascism.

I have some more.

1. Civil Religion - Symbols and Values of the State become a 'religion'. A big concern about this would be FLAG BURNING.

2. Cult of Personality - Statues and the media invite people to worship Leaders.



3. Enemies of the State - Some people according to Fascism's Will become atrocious criminals. Germany - Jews, Pinochet - Socialists, RW'ers - Anti-War Protesters.

I have a question for you...

Is it Fascism yet?

2. If I answer that, we'll have to kill you.
Better to just forget the question.

6. Yep, it slays me
They want to trash the (living) Constitution so that they may worship the flag (a symbol).
