📚 Umberto Eco takes us on a whimsical journey through the kaleidoscope of fascist regimes, desperately trying to pin down an elusive checklist of "Ur-Fascism" that’s as useful as a chocolate teapot. 🎩 Meanwhile, Bob Schwartz cheerleads from the sidelines, because who doesn’t love an academic rabbit hole where the dots don’t connect? 🙄
