10 Steps to a Fascist America

Naomi Wolf has an article in The Guardian where she lays out a ten-step program for democratic societies to gradually shift into authoritarian states. So, how many of these steps has this administration embarked on over the last six years? Looks like all 10.

Here are the steps:

1. Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy

2. Create a gulag

3. Develop a thug caste

4. Set up an internal surveillance system

5. Harass citizens' groups

6. Engage in arbitrary detention and release

7. Target key individuals

8. Control the press

9. Dissent equals treason

10. Suspend the rule of law

Here is the entire article. Important read.
