The fringe is where the crazies live. My problem is that fascism seems to be drifting from the fringes toward the center. There are certain very oppressive views that are actually pretty common.
I really wish you''d stop misusing the word fascism. It dilutes the brand.
Sure, authoritarianism is increasing on both sides, probably in relation to either the actual or perceived increase from "the other side". That said, authoritarian right wing nationalism, fascism, is only moving towards the mainstream on the american right. The american left is lukewarm-to-traitorous in their commitment to authoritarian left wing socialism. Buncha fuckin part time commies.
