A quarter-century later, it's hard not to look back on folks like Newt Gingrich and not see clear and present signs of proto-fascism. His talk of anti-liberalism has not wavered and still supports these domestic militias and terrorist groups. Curiously, a quarter-century later, with fascists in the White House, we have not yet discovered the temerity to call out any but the worst of this conduct as it really is. To this day, we are unable to confront the costs to human life of our detention centers, our world policing actions, our arms deals, our political interference, our assassinations. We seem to have internalized the idea that, on occasion, folks will be bombed, including us.
