It often amazes me how closely the likes of Hannity and Fox pseudo news fit the 14 characteristics of fascism. Not all and not every one in detail but most. Amazing!
Fourteen Defining Characteristics Of Fascism By Dr. Lawrence Britt
Dr. Lawrence Britt has examined the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) and several Latin American regimes. Britt found 14 defining characteristics common to each:
1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism
2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights
3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
4. Supremacy of the Military
5. Rampant Sexism
6. Controlled Mass Media
7. Obsession with National Security
8. Religion and Government are Intertwined
9. Corporate Power is Protected
10. Labor Power is Suppressed
11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts
12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment
13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption
14. Fraudulent Elections
*Fourteen Defining Characteristics Of Fascism
ROFLMNAO... There is no Dr. Britt; he was a fabrication by some still unknown Western European web-prankster... There is no Dr. Lawrence Britt registered at any University; there is no other academic offering by a Dr. Lawrence Britt, anywhere; and as far as anyone can tell, the entire '14 defining charasteristics of fascism' is just absurd propaganda; pure nonsense advanced by the socialist left, of absolutely no academic credibility what so ever.
The cool part is this idiocy has been advanced in MILLIONS of college papers and debates, where leftists all over the world have used the brilliant, but fictional 'Dr. Lawrence Britt' to assure their opposition of the fascist nature of the Bush Administration.
It's 100% PURE BULLSHIT.
