: The fascists invariably have the eager, if woefully ignorant support of large swaths of the working class and the middle class, not to mention a fair swath of academe, because the prey on misgivings, grievances, etc. they all have against some number of Not-We, and convince each group "We hear you!" and "We are you, too!"

Then they fuck them.

It's clockwork.

Then the useful idiots clutch their pearls and claim "We didn't know" when all the MFs had to do was look.

To Hell with them.
