American Fascism 2017

It’s easy to throw words like “fascism” around without really thinking about their definitions . . . so I looked the word up, to reexamine it. In my opinion, the “shoe fits,” as the saying goes, whether you call it “American fascism,” or simply “Trumpism.” Just look at the details of the Google-provided definition above:

Authoritarian? Check.
Nationalistic? “Make America Great Again!” “America First!”
Right-wing? Very much so.
Government? Firm control of two of three branches, at the moment.
Social organization? They’re working on that, in the usual “us and them” form.
Extreme? Almost comically so.
Intolerant? Vividly so.

What’s more, all of this is apparent after Donald Trump has been in office for only a week.

Fiona Hill co-authored the 2015 book Mr. Putin: Operative at the Kremlin, available here, on Amazon. She is also (according to the Washington Post story linked above, written by David Filipov) a scholar at the Brookings Institution. Here’s the headline, taken from a screenshot.

For those who do not know, The Washington Post is the newspaper which blew open the Watergate scandal, and that, in turn, brought down the Nixon administration.

These are facts.

On Turning Election Day Into Mother’s Day

Posted on 15 October 2016 by RobertLovesPi

Upon closer inspection, even Gary Johnson and Jill Stein aren’t people I want to vote for. I have therefore decided I am not going to vote for president this year, at least not as myself.

My mother can no longer vote. She would want to vote for Hillary Clinton. I will, therefore, cast a vote for H.C. on her behalf.
