BEST OF TST 9/2/22 - Fascism Schism w David Knight

No matter the uniform, the name, chosen words, or political allegiance, authoritarianism seeks to undermine universal natural law and basic human freedoms. Whether brown shirts, black shirts, Hugo Boss uniforms, or Red Guards, the results are always same. When leaders position themselves as the righteous and degrade their political opposition with words like "fascism" and "extremism" the seed is planted that any potential ‘means’ can be justified by the ‘end’ goal of stopping the terrible things that such terms imply. As the White House designates large segments of the Republican party "semi-fascist," "extreme," and a threat to democracy, anyone in association with the IDEA that America is "great" becomes the enemy. David Knight joins us for a discussion on fascism, communism, and history.
