Fascists
Fascists today are those who label others fascists.
As Hayek said long ago,
“Fascism is the stage reached after communism has proved an illusion.”
And there are certainly a lot of commies,
at least the wannabe idealistic kind, today
that are upset, in denial or clueless
that their cause is a failure.
Mao and Stalin spent years taking turns calling each other just that,
and they were both right
since the lustrous aspiration of global communism
soon faded into national socialism
which is essentially the definition
of fascism.
But fascists today,
you know, the ones calling others fascists,
don’t know their history.
And the interesting thing about not knowing your history,
besides the fact you’re then doomed to repeat it,
is that you’re also then living
in La La Land.
