the more he read   and studied

history  politics  its –isms  fascism    he wondered Where

the masses who suffered subterranean blues(no kind of blues to have  lamentable  one could almost  almost  understand why and forgive them as they strike out against others hawkishly parry with their forgotten entitlement  that slender ironskein  they were born in America) and identified themselves with Herr Donald mystic Rafael the GOP(the Grand Old Party in case anyone forgot what its acronym was short for) 
                 
Where  they got their educations
                               is it possible nearly half of America is dull 
craven followers  frightened fearful  believed that within the democratic confines erected by the United States Constitution by the Founding Fathers who they say they revere  who they keenly stroke their cocks and clits to
that it was possible they could see either man succeed

could see either direct Americas Fiftyfirst State  the Military  bend to their misplaced at best or errant imaginings subjugate itself to their singular unfettered will

or a Senate  freshly-minted by Democrats

                                   who will staunch their every effort or action within or outside the United States as effectively as the Republicans did when they chose to obstruct the Obama Administration(not to forget(history) their top political priority delineated in 2010 by Senate Minority leader McConnell in spite of their Congressional vow and elections to do the Peoples Work) to the hellacious detriment of the country

or did he think the more he read and studied that the Fourth Estate(despite its utterly corporate iteration) would provide yet another pratfall as it did following September 11

unless  of course  Herr Donald mystic Rafael manufactured a September 11 of their own . . .  tantalising

it was the answer to the prayers of the Bush Administration Neocons(who for some reason are still hanging around Washington offering(selling) their insight or advise and somehow not in prison for their crimes)  

sorrily he supposed theyd learn  Reality Shows are produced   but arent reality after all



1717,  Day-between-Two-Ts,  23  3. 16


Fascists “mobilising passions”:

*  a sense of overwhelming crisis beyond the reach of any traditional solution;
*  the primacy of the group, towards which one has duties superior to every right, whether individual oruniversal, and the subordination of the individual to it;
*  the belief that one’s group is a victim, a sentiment that justifies any action, without legal or moral basis, against its enemies, both internal and external;
*  dread of the group’s decline under the corrosive effects of individualistic liberalism, class conflict, and alien influences;
*  the need for closer integration of a purer community, by consent if possible, or by exclusionary violence if necessary;
*  the need fr authority by natural leaders (always male), culminating in a national chief who alone is capable of incarnating the group’s destiny;
*  the superiority of the leader’s instinct over abstract and universal reason;
*  the beauty of violence and the efficacy of will, when they are devoted to the group’s success;
*  the right of the chosen people to dominate others without restraint from any kind of human or divine law, right being decided by the sole criterion of the group’s prowess with a Darwinian struggle.
