    It used to be 14 signs of Fascism, but I guess 10 are enough…

      If it consoles you, we’ve met all 14.

        Oh yeah… And it long predates Trump too. The USA is a fundamentally fascist society, and has been for decades.

      The original 14 points stem from Umberto Eco from his essay Ur-Fascism. There’s a breakdown on the wikipedia page, and here’s the full essay. The US still meets the OG 14 points too

      Funny how they always only describe the ‘signs’ and not the essence of what fascism is.
