Kind of a "duh" headline to me. The headline of this article isn't that big a deal to me, because every country harbors some level of the preconditions for facism. So I found it more interesting to read about a country that did make the transition from a strong liberal democracy to a facist regeime. I just finished the book "The Coming of the Third Reich" by Richard J Evans which covers Germany from ~1880 to 1933, and does a great job of explaining how ordinary Germans at the time were living their lives and the greater cultural shifts that gave way to the minority-populist uprising that was the Nazi seizure of power. Way more insightful place to start, in my opinion.
