DoomsdaysCWSome background about #LawrenceBritt 's #CharacteristicsOfFascism, which was sold (but not displayed) at the Holocaust Museum. The article does NOT mention that Britt's list was obviously based on #UmbertoEco's version. Oh well...
Fact check: 'Early Warning Signs Of Fascism' sign was once sold at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum
Sarah Lynch, July 2020
"While a poster with the “Early Warning Signs Of Fascism” was indeed previously sold in the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum Shop, it did not originate from the museum and was not part of any exhibition or display. Britt wrote the words in a 2003 article in Free Inquiry, which Syracuse Cultural Workers reprinted and sold with his permission."
The original poster is still being sold here:
