Sure is lots of the fascist word being bandied about. Here is another quote from this article....
SULLIVAN: And Islam is the other critical factor that has galvanized this. Its the gasoline on the fire. The fear that aliens are coming into our country and Trump has deliberately fostered in a way that only the fascists of the 30s have fostered the notion that these people are a potential fifth column coming to kill you and attack you and rape you.
Sullivan is a sodomite, AIDS infected, homo-fascist. He was busted years ago for advertising for anonymous, bareback homo-sex after he was discovered to be HIV positive. Didn’t hurt his standing with the left, of course.
He’s got a point.
Fascists do use the fear of internal and external to secure their power.
What Andrew Sullivan is missing that there is something to fear from these aliens - they are barbarians and members of a vicious and murderous religion. They bring nothing to this country that we needs (except, for Democrats, votes).
