Thread Name: BS: before special & radical interests take over
Subject: RE: BS: before special & radical interests take over
Special and radical interests took over the US government, its military, and its media some considerable time ago. This is so obvious to the World in general that only some Americans seem to still not about it. Funny that the chosen candidate and frontman of those special and radical interests would now be warning against this happening, isn't it?

But that is one of the key methods of fascism. Accuse others of exactly what you yourself are doing, and then pass authoritarian and anti-democratic legislation in order to strengthen your position of control. Hope that your political opponents will resort to some violent action to increase unquestioning public support for the ruling administration. If they don't, arrange to have it done secretly by your own operatives, and then blame it on your opponents. Start another war. The majority of the public will always support a government when it's at war. Count on it. The Germans did. If necessary, declare a state of national emergency. Whatever works. And then kiss your democracy goodbye.
