And we don't want to stifle anything. We certainly don't want to stifle free speech, but that's no longer free speech. See, I don't think that the mainstream media is free speech either because it's so crooked. It's so dishonest. So to me, free speech is not when you see something good and then you purposely write bad. To me, that's a very dangerous speech, and you become angry at it. But that's not free speech.

Free speech... is speech that doesn't question your believes, reveals your lies or delusions and makes you angry.

@Elessar Oh, and the Italians had some theorists that added a lot...
Like Pareto and Mitchell, they did a lot to contribute towards the elitst aspects of it all.
And then you have Mussolini and Gentile who added a lot to the theory.
... In the end though. I think Italy had a fertile soil for the message of feeling like an absolute failure and looking back at some glorious mythical past (the roman empire). They found some scapegoats, embraced aggressive nationalism, ... just so they could feel good about themselves. Ones you start being pridefull for no reason except belonging to a certain defined group... you kinda liberate yourself from doing any work that might deserve actual pride. It's an alluring concept.

@Kwek00 Oh, I'm aware. It's wild though that it can take root in America, because it's not that they were in a decaying state around and before 2016. Nor now, relatively speaking to the rest of the world especially.
Although that specific subset probably felt so since the defeat of the confederacy.

You should read up on the South... Your mistake is looking at the US as if it's some kind of homogenous country. But it's the south, and particulairly the religious south, that is the largest issue and propeller of far-right ideas.They feel as if they are decaying since the loss of the civil war. And the US never had a reflection moment after the civil war... they went on as if it's business as ussual, and the south reembraced their old ideas the moment some of the pressure of the federal governement was lifted. These people are still fighting that civil war out there, it's just been less bloody since it officially ended.
