Which is just as true of the argument

And that is exactly the mechanism through which fascist regimes keep resistance down and dissenters in a state of self-doubt.

People like the guy accusing me of being "hyper-propagandized" knowingly weaponize this uncertainty to become willing enablers.

That isn't true at all. Some of the argument relies on the experience of an Austrian education, but we are also encouraged to refer to other provided sources if we choose to seek other opinions.

Italian here, and I know a few things about fascism not just because of that. Yes, what is happening in the US is the rise of a fascist state controlled by a small minority of very wealthy and powerful people purely for economical reasons with Trump being just a tool in their hands. As with happened in my country back then, there are only two possible reasons for endorsing it: being part of the cult, or being part of the club. That's why I stopped long ago any attempt at reasoning with apologists.

I never said I live in Austria. I don't. But having grown up in Austria, the rise of fascism was the major theme of my entire education.
