Reactionary Fascism.

After a period of social liberation, which may have gone too far, we see a reaction of right-wing hypocritical moralism.

We saw this after the 1920s.

And we saw this after the 1960s and 1970s.

And to a lesser extent after the 1990s and 2000s.

This backlash has been exploited by cynical political forces to create political power.

We saw this in the 1930s.

And we saw this in the 1980s.

And we saw this in the 2010s.

This is Fascism.

It creates a scapegoat - the Jews, gays and lesbians, liberals, immigrants.

It is based on prejudice and hate.

And it is evil.
