We should all be keen on remembering that it is not like we live in a normal, liberal society, and that these Fascists from the outside are a threat. The truth which many are reluctant to accept is that 'common sense' philistinism, or more generally conventional thinking, makes these ideas 'reasonable', not even ridiculous but ultimately a logical conclusion of a way of thinking that is inherent to the existing order. Your average 'progressive liberal', and I should add your average Leftist in general is not aware of the fact that the ideas of the neo-Fascism are merely logical conclusions of premises that are a given for the existing order of things. The key to this neo-Fascism is in conventional thinking. And it permeates to all layers of society, most especially the working class. The very conventional idea of "People are too stupid to rule themselves", and whatever, is literally just a 'common sense' sentiment most people have.
