This episode delves into the alarming rise of fascism in American politics and around the world. Led by far-right populist movements and authoritarian leaders, this dark force is gaining support and posing a threat to democracy and human rights.
It's a fascinating discussion with Dr. Andrew Bard Schmookler, who has been warning about a fascistic force he saw gathering in our body politic since 2004, and we explore the reasons behind its resurgence and how we can fight back against it. Drawing on lessons from history, we discuss the similarities between today's political climate and the rise of totalitarian regimes in the 1930s, including the scapegoating of minority groups and the rejection of democratic norms. We also ruminate on the reasons the left was so unprepared for this challenge, and why some people may believe that the left is becoming more fascistic in its own ways.
As we examine the need for vigilance and action, the question arises: can we defeat fascism in this generation, or is Gen Z our last great hope
