Reply #11: I just read the article...

so when should I start shrieking? It was an interesting read, but full of sweeping generalizations, suspect comparisons (substitute "conservative" for "liberal" during the Mein Kampf piece, and you'll see a lot of things that you've heard right here on DU, and I don't see us herding repukes into camp any time soon) and implied conclusions (Milton Mayer's part describes the incremental ism that gets a society to a fascist state, but the fact that we may take 1 or 2 steps down this long path does not make it a foregone conclusion). It was certainly something to think about, but I wouldn't start marking the days off on my calendar just yet.
