Fascism isn't a virus

Fascism isn't a virus you catch if you read rightwing websites. It's a response to circumstances. No, it's not just an outcome of "economic anxiety" but that doesn't mean that "economic anxiety" isn't a factor.

What it does mean is that you can "cure" fascism in two ways: you either rid yourself of fascists and don't worry how they got that way or fix the circumstances that they are responding to. Or both.

What will not cure fascism is voting it out of office and going back to the status quo that is in fact the circumstances that the fascists are responding to in the first place.
