Fascism is a 20th Century term for authoritarian behavior that is as old as mankind.

(56,262 posts)Today's Republican Party has virtually nothing in common with Eisenhower or any actual "conservative" philosophy.
The only things they want to conserve are white supremacy and concentrated wealth in the hands of a few white men.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
