Steps in a Fascist Shift:
Target Leading Figures
Target Leading Figures
I have been horrified moments ago to view comments by someone named Liz Trotta on Fox "News" joking about killing Sen. Barack Obama after first calling him "Osama". (See video below.) This hideous joke is, in fact, reminiscent of Hitler who first joked about killing the Jews before setting out to do so. On another web site a writer asks of Fox: shouldn't someone be arrested? I agree with the question and urgently request our authorities to promptly launch an investigation of individuals who would joke on-air so inappropriately and dangerously. This is telecasting which is going either along public rights-of-way or through the public air space. Such joking must be condemned in the strongest possible terms.
It seemed especially appropriate to include this incident on my web log as it is an example of one of the tactics in a fascist shift. As part of the effort to close an open society, leaders (and their accomplices) begin to target key individuals, singling them out for scorn and derision. This is first often done in a joking manner. Later the targeting becomes actual. (See previous posts on this subject.)
And so I call upon the F.B.I. to question Liz Trotta, the host of this show, and all responsible for this verbal atrocity. And let a fair investigation lead where it may.
