What can we do, as a community, to limit the spread of fascism? It seems that it's quite a problem.

What exactly is the “fascism” that we’re worried about spreading?

>>rayine+L6
Have you not been paying attention this past three years? Rampant nationalism, children in cages (still happening), police brutality and murder without repercussions, teargassing and beating peaceful protesters, the attorney general asserting that the president cannot break the law. I could go on, but if those don't make you worried about the threat of fascism, I'm not sure what would...

"Children in cages" happened during the Obama administration. No uproar then?

Oh, sorry, so the nation has been listing towards fascism for decades? That is not a refuting of any of my points.

Bush started the use of drones in war, but Obama bears the blame for them in my opinion, because he could have backed away from it but instead he doubled down. I would say the same for the treatment of refugees at the border. Obama built the cages, but Trump uses them with a sickening joy and enthusiasm.
