Locked because I keep getting reports from people arguing. Cool off.
Fascism and bootlicking were in vogue among conservatives since Nixon.
That's for sure and I think you can make a pretty reasonable case that they only got worse. They managed to convince most Americans that somehow were becoming more liberal despite the fact that we're in reality we are getting more fascist every fucking year.
We've moved so far to the right as a country that Joe Biden is more of a right-wing Republican than Reagan was. It just so happens that the alternative to Joe Biden is Donald Trump who is somewhere to the right of Hitler, And if Donald Trump were literate we would be in even worse shape right now.
Maybe, but there was definitely a dramatic uptick in highschool and college aged groups that wasn't as pronounced before. I watched friends who had laughed at recruiters only a year before practically run to recruiting offices. I still know people who fully believe Sadam and Iran worked together to hide WMD.
Funny thinking back to it, those conspiracies were at least plausible.
