Description
We will look at the continuing threat of fascism that once again is offering its simplistic and dangerous hard man antidote to complex world issues. We see it’s tentacles arising in Hungary, Turkey, Italy, Brazil and versions of it in the dictatorships of Russia and China. It seems to also attract the Trumps, Johnson’s and Bannon’s.
