Hillary's America: The Secret

The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi
So Adorno's F-Scale had no power to explain why fascism came to power in Germany and Italy but not elsewhere. Most real fascists, historian Anthony James Gregor dryly observes in The Ideology of Fascism, "would not have made notably high scores.

The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi
The classic document in this regard is Adorno's famous F-Scale. The F stands for fascism. Adorno outlined the scale in his 1950 book The Authoritarian Personality. The basic argument was that fascism is a form of authoritarianism and that the worst manifestation of authoritarianism is self-imposed repression.

Hillary's America: The Secret
By contrast, Blanche K. Bruce was the real deal. Born into slavery in Virginia, Bruce was freed by his master and studied at Oberlin College before becoming a successful farmer and landowner. He is the only former slave to have served in the U.S. Senate.

The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi
Southern Democrats struck exactly the same note, deploring lynching and the Klan and institutionalizing instead, just as the Nazis did, the organized repression of state-sponsored segregation and discrimination.

The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi

The End of Racism: Finding
Finally, proportional representation assures an unceasing racialization of American society. By seeking to fight discrimination by practicing it, proportional representation multiplies the wounds inflicted by race-based decisions. Far from compensating old victims, it creates new ones. Proportional representation seeks to institutionalize race and make it a permanent feature of American public life. It has normalized and legitimized a neurotic obsession with race that maims our souls. If Americans acquiesce in this prescription, it will set them on a perpetual treadmill of racial recrimination and conflict. At least the old discrimination existed anomalously with the American creed; the new discrimination, embedded in law and policy, corrupts the nation's institutions and makes them purveyors of injustice.

Death of a Nation: Plantation
In a free market, Fitzhugh notes, the interest of masters is opposed to that of the "wage slaves." When the slaves lose, the masters gain. The masters are always contriving to pay their workers less-playing them off against each other-even though the workers are the ones who produce all the products. Free society is a "war of the rich with the poor, and the poor with one another." In such society, Fitzhugh memorably observes, "virtue loses all her loveliness, because of her selfish aims.

The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi
The fascist synthesis did not view Italy as a society divided by class but rather as a unified country in which all sectors of society could come together. The fascists replaced the old Marxist divide between unproductive capitalists and productive labor with the single category of the productive nation. Mussolini called this a Fascio nazionale, a national union.
