You saw the word "Fascism" in the title and immediately thought of Adolf Hitler. Not so fast.
Although America's Democratic Party, in their effort to capture the Executive Branch of the Federal Government, has used several tactics patented by the National Socialist German Workers' Party (AKA Nazis) movement between 1933 and 1945, this is not about Germans, then or now.
So, put Hitler and his immediate European precursor, Italian Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, aside because this is about now, and all of us.
