    I hope “non-believers” doesn’t mean religious non-believers because fascism and authoritarianism has historically gone hand in hand with religion and religious dogma.

    But I suspect I’m misunderstanding the context here. At least I hope I am.

        Ah you’re saying people don’t necessarily believe in fascism, but are willing to use it to their advantage. Got it.

        I suppose that’s true of most things. In short, evil people are evil. I’m just tired of half (or more) of the country being so deluded by this bullshit. I mean they really are that stupid. And it’s pretty sad, and shitty for the next generations.

        As George Carlin once said, “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
