It's been here for decades, they always build fascism in silence then go mask off once it's full fledged
Since the seventies at the latest. Unions were unified and synchronized with parties post-WWII, workers' demands reconciled with those of capital. That was originally the project of il Duce, but we took it out of his hands greedily.
We could do fascism better than him and what is more fascist than to peg the worth of individuals, the economy, to that of a not necessarily racialised abstract people of a Nation? Now anyone can become a fascist by subordinating themselves to the state. A German is anyone who is a good citizen to the German state, Japan and the US are the same.
In Benito's words: "Race? It is a feeling, not a reality: ninety-five percent, at least, is a feeling. Nothing will ever make me believe that biologically pure races can be shown to exist today... National pride has no need of the delirium of race."
It was there prominently during the cold war era. If you happen to be gay or a socialist, then you were all ready being surveilled by the FBI.
