CW: Racial slurs, Antisemitism, Racism, Xenophobia, Islamophobia, War, Genocide, Homophobia, Transphobia, Ableism, Colonisation, Classism. Mentions of Police brutality, Abortion, and Sexism
this is a great introduction into fascism. the title is quite literal in its about how fascism works & how fascism rhetoric/tactics ensnare certain populations/people groups to advance an agenda. this book is about how the rhetoric works, what it entails, and ways to recognize when someone is spouting it.
I imagine this will be a good companion to Stanley's How Propaganda Works book, but thats next on my reading list! how fascism works doesn't necessarily cover how to COMBAT fascistic ideology/rhetoric, but it's a great start in one's understanding of it as a whole.
