We not only remember the behavior of the American president of today, we remember much more. We just ignored it for decades because the pursuit of greatness the US took for many decades. But now, that goodwill was annihilated.

Now we remember the fascism of the McCarthy era, the racism of ... all the times, the lack of a contemporary codified law system, the condemnation of mathematics and logic, the social discrepacies, the lack of progressive political concepts, the nationalist and isolationist tendencies.

And last but not least that the American people put the symbol of the Italian fascist movement on the front of the Licoln Memorial in the same year Mussolini became Duce.

The USofA were and are a deeply fascist and racist country.

Looking back something despicable like MAGA and the election of a demagouge is only the anticipatable consequence.

We stop not remembering. No more deference, no more humble greeting. It's now the age of the one finger salute. #FUUS
