THIS IS THE THREAD

because again people went out of their ways to downplay certain things because they believed they only affected white people……

They didn’t we have had fascism

One thing I think people talking about the threat of authoritarian creep have gotten, if not exactly wrong, not quite right either is to frame discussion in terms of various European precedents.

Those are relevant to be sure, but we also have an American precedent - namely the South before 1965.
