Do you know what a fascist is?

May 9, 2020

The most terrifying thing about Governor Murphy's statement yesterday what's the fact that he does not recognize when he is being a fascist.

In the good old days, fascist recognized when they were being fascist and bragged about it.

But this is the problem: we have a group of people who are out of control who are ruling Our Lives who are not only incompetent at being fascist

They don't even know they are being that.

Murphy appears to be just reading from the Democratic Think Tank script following line-by-line what every other good Democrat is saying and is being told to say.

This may be the reason why he won't comment on Joe Biden sexual allegations.

 Someone in some think tank somewhere has told all the Democrats Nationwide to keep their traps shut.

In the good old days when we had Obama who at least looked and sounded like a leader. Of course, that was because he was all image and no substance. Or perhaps the substance was made of a lot nastier and despicable than what he showed on top. He hid his fascism behind a wall and operated strictly through his secret police.

Most of the leaders we have now act out the part of being tough and decisive, but they really are acting like fascist mistaken abusive power for leadership.

Real leaders don't follow scripts written for them by a bunch of party hacks.

Perhaps deep down they really believe they are not fascists and like the old German of the good old days are simply following orders.

It's scary to think that this kind of ignorance was behind the move to send so many senior citizens to their deaths when forcing sick people into nursing homes.

 How New Jersey got those people to those places it's still a mystery since we don't have cattle cars this far east.

Of course, the label fascist fits in other ways to just ask people who actually went through the Holocaust and remember being lockdown in ghettos.

We seem to fit the fascist model that most Holocaust experts acknowledged as the pattern.

First, you strip people of their civil rights.

Secondly, you isolate them.

Then, thirdly you kill them.

 Fascist may indeed be the wrong term for the group of leaders we have inherited.  Perhaps they are indeed well-meaning puppets operating on some string some Puppet Master is pulling.

But until we can come up with a more contemporary term that fits these abuses of power fascism is going to have to serve us.

And hopefully when Murphy wakes up some morning and looks in the mirror, he recognizes that fact.

But puppets rarely recognize that they are puppets and keep on doing party bidding until some higher power and more aggressive action is taken to wake them up.

It took World War II to unseat the worst fascist of our lifetime which is why we still celebrate the victory in Europe.

The fascism that overwhelmed America in the 1950s and 60s took action in the street and that may come when Americans and citizens of this state wake up and realize just how they have been abused and for some petty Democratic plot to regain power.

Unfortunately, real people died real deaths in this, and real people lost their civil rights and then until our real leadership realizes they have been acting like tyrants we may find ourselves always at odds.

Perhaps rather than calling Murphy a tyrant or even fascist, let's just rename Murphy Pinocchio and watch his nose grow.
