Looking back at history on January 6th, 2021. The US capital was attacked and invaded by Nazi white supremacist terrorists. This was the red flag that the US would fall to fascism.

January 6 United States Capitol attack - Wikipedia

@juliehuz It's bad enough watching this happen from the other side of the ocean. The stress of living through it locally must be horrendous. Yet people rationalise and try to continue their normal lives. #riseoffascism

Cynthia Zarin traces the rise of fascism through the diary entries of Virginia Woolf, in an essay from LARB Quarterly no. 47: “Security.”

The Sadistic Dance of Authoritarianism

They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?, Sydney Pollack’s underrated 1969 film, is, in my opinion, a great analogy of the 1960s.

I started thinking about this ~10yrs ago.

Misinformation and lies are at the heart of it and especially in the US, it's easy to do.

Donald Trump says he is not a dictator. Isn’t he?

From deploying the national guard to targeting news channels and schools, the US president’s actions are anything from typical of a democratic leader

" I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it's possible for The Atlantic to be 'truthful' ", Trump wrote.

Ha!!!

Says the man (wet fart) who told *30,573 LIES* in his first term in office!! (WaPo).

Jeffrey Goldberg: Trump to meet with Atlantic editor from Signal leak

A month earlier, Mr Goldberg was inadvertently added to a Signal group discussing an upcoming Houthi attack.

This is a fantastic piece of journalism. Essentially, it explains clearly, the extent to which the *USA is imploding*

(The Evangelicals, effectively kicked out of England/Holland ~400yrs ago, are finally taking over. They were horrible people back then and as we can see, a vast swathe of them still are today).

Meet the new American refugees fleeing across state lines for safety

Americans have often moved between states for opportunities. Now they’re being forced to uproot themselves to escape hostile forces under Trump

The Guardian

When, as a child, watching the "World of War", and seeing the rise of fascism culminating in 'The Second Great Global Disagreement', I could not believe that as an adult, I'd see a similar pattern in a previously democratic and liberal country.

But, in 2025, here we are. 😢
