Can you participate in a thought experiment with me? The posts warning about fascism are good, but I’m wondering what you think fascism actually looks like. Give a thought, and list what it looks like. Don’t just say “the end of democracy.” List what the concrete changes will be and make it local. “In my town/city/county/state the following will happen…” Think about it before replying. Not just for #BlackMastodon .

You try not to talk to them at all. Who knows what side anyone is on. Every day is the same. Every person is the same. Except when the war (there’s always a war) gets really bad, or comes too close, and then the fear, the hatred, the violence is even closer to the surface, and you hide yourself even deeper.
You think you should be brave and fight for your freedom, but you’re alone, with no one to trust, and no one you can open up to.
That is fascism.
