How Facism Works - Day 6 - Victimhood
How Facism Works - Day 6 - Victimhood - Republicans have been using victimhood as a tool for decades. They are the victims of the media, of the Democrats, of the left, of the deep state, of the swamp, of the fake news, of the cancel culture, of the woke mob, of the social justice warriors, of the critical race theorists, of Awdntifa, of the BLM, of the immigrants, of the Muslims, of the LGBTQ, of the feminists, of the environmentalists, of the scientists, of the intellectuals, etc.

How Facism Works - Day 4 - Unreality
How Facism Works - Day 4 - Unreality - A key point of facism is it's attack on intellectuals. Colleges, Doctors, news reporters...all are intellectuals that can't be trusted. They're "work"..."fake news"...want to poison your kids with "dangerous" vaccines. We see this today with attacks on "woke" universities and established science. It's all about removing your trust of these people, and getting you to place your trust on the politicians.

How Facism Works - Day 2 - Propaganda
How Facism Works - Day 2 - Propaganda - Propaganda works by repeating the same lie or half truth again and again until the full truth becomes the lie. Fox News repeats the same story. YouTubers repeat the same story. Now it's the truth. Get your news from all sources. Fox, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, etc. If only one of those is the "real" news to you, and the rest "fake" news, then the "one" is actually the liar.
