Exactly this: "gradually pushing the American public towards fascism—or blooding the population—by testing how much dehumanization of immigrants he could get away with and slowly upping the ante." That's the game plan and it'd got to be called out loudly by all of us at each turn. Glad to see that was the most read piece. So glad it's still fringe, but you're absolutely right we've got to be vigilant. That's another bit of their game plan: expanding the realm of possibility and giving aggrieved people a sense that their darkest and most debased feelings might be justified.
Thanks for this Dean.
