We already have a movement similar to fascism in the US. It's called Fundamentalist Christianity and as Republican / Tea Party types continue to gain more power in the US over the next couple of years, we're going to see a rise in its insidious influence on our culture as well.


you do realize, overthing the tea party sands for is the polar opposite to Fascism.

also all tea party rallies have been extremely peaceful. but nice try bub. you would have a greater chance of finding violent people  wanting a dictatorship type government at a greenpeace or anti-war rally


Any time you find people wanting to "put God back in charge of everything everything" you find a group of fascists.  And the only reason most Conservative candidates one their elections in 2010 was due to the Evangelical votes that they received, so yes that is evidence of a fascist movement in our society influencing public policy.

so you dont know what a fascist is, then.

why are you here?

edit: also you arent very good at judging politic climates and determining factors of elections, are you? the results of the election had little to due with Christianity, and every thing to due with back lash to an ever increasing size of goverment, its control of their lives, taxes, debt, etc


I definitely know what a fascist is.  Fascism is a form of government that wants to remove most of the rights from its citizens in order to lead them down an erroneous ideological path.  Ie. Fundamentalist Christianity.  See most of the history of Christianity at times when it has had the power to shape world events ie.  The genocides commited by Christians against many different crusades from the time of the crusades right up to the Salem Witchtrials.  Also Hitler himself, probably history's most noted fascist, was largely influenced and supported by various Christian fashions ( http://nobeliefs.com/Hitler1.htm ).  And emulated many of their actions during their various crusades and witchhunts.

Over 70% of the Christians that voted in the last elections voted for Conservative candidatess and if you remove the Christian vote from the last set of elections, then many of the elections that were won by Conservatives would have had different results ( http://communities.canada.com/vancouversun/blogs/thesearch/archive/2010/11/05/christians-again-swing-u-s-mid-term-elections.aspx ).
