The Ten Pillars of Fascist Politics by Jason Stanley
Above is a July 6, 2021 twitter thread by Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley, PhD, which outlines the 10 pillars of fascist politics. It shows just how fascist most of the Republican Party has become under Trump’s leadership. The current MAGA GQP has incorporated each of the above 10 pillars into its talking points and philosophy.
This is why the GQP has been up in arms about Biden accurately calling their Trumpist political ideology “semi-fascism.”
Feel free to share this with your relatives and friends who want to defend the direction the GQP has been going in. [Just be prepared when they counterattack to explain why the Democratic Party is not “communist” or “socialist,” but a center left political party, with its most extreme members being social democrats (even Bernie Sanders and AOC aren’t really democratic socialists)].

Note: The visual formatting of how the original tweet in the thread appears, as well as the visual formatting of pillars number 2 - 9 were modified from their source; furthermore, the translation of “ARBEIT MACH FREI” AS “WORK MAKES ONE FREE” was added to pillar #10.

This is the price of the RepubliKKKlans abortion bans. The GQP wasn’t happy with just the South being like the Third World, they want to share it to the whole country.

By sending immigrant refugees to northern states on false claims of work and housing, Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott are mirroring the 1962 playbook of the southern White Citizens’ Council who conducted “Reverse Freedom Rides” protesting desegregation by sending Black citizens to northern cities, with false claims of work and housing.
This is why the GQP is so determined to forbid schools from teaching anything more than a whitewashed American history.
If one does not know the repeating patterns of history, it is hard to know how to combat what is happening in the present--or how present day actions might be a part of a larger, more threatening movement.
