[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 75289, member: 1912"] Tie, If anyone has a track record of not answering questions it is you. As far as your link rebutting my position; I would contend that it does the opposite. The next points in Griffins thesis are The Myth of National or Ethnic Renewal & Idea of Nation in Crisis. I would say that both of these conditions have been met. The reliance on Militarism is another of the signs Griffin points to. Id say we have that covered as well. [COLOR=Blue]I would believe that would be one hell of a stretch to equate the polarization of red states and blue states in this country to a fascist renewal. You are really reaching now in order to continue supporting your ill thought out position.[/COLOR] I dont think that we have become Fascist yet, just that the seeds are planted, and we are on the road towards Fascism. I wouldnt expect the new American fascism to resemble that of Italy or Germany in 1938, though this quote rings true today: [COLOR=Blue]I don't believe that either germany or italy had a well established political system that seperated the powers prior to their conversion. I'm sure you could find many other differences between our country and theirs if you chose to. [/COLOR] "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." Mussolini [COLOR=Blue]Then your point would have to be that all corporatism is fascism? I would think Mussolini ending up at the end of a noose in the town square of Milan may indicate that he was not always right on the issues of his day?[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
