The contrarian with an audience of millions and a father from Offaly on why he thinks wokeism can be a form of fascism
Six years ago, Polish filmmaker Jan Komasa had an idea for a film. It was multi-layered, rife with compelling themes, packed with juicy roles for a sprawling family unit, and just plain scary. It was also, by his own telling, not just dystopian, it was also so made-up that it felt like "sci-fi." Well, about all that... The film is called "Anniversary," and what felt like a reach six years ago now feels all too real.
I don't mean the obvious. There is fascism rotting not just our nation but the world, fascism so bad that common folk have begun calling it what it is and not just the communists and anarchists I spend most of my time with. The government shutdown, an event engineered by one party alone, exists solely to squeeze to death the programs they couldn't cancel the funding for through legal means, permanently crippling only the social subsidies that they deem unfit.
You have probably lost track of the number of articles about people who have jettisoned family members over contradictory and reprehensible political views. How do we get to the point that educated people, some skilled in philosophical argumentation, fail to make communicative progress with others? As the U.S. sinks further into fascism, why haven't philosophers' arguments against fascism caused fascists to do a regretful volte-face? Are non-fascist philosophers ill-equipped to deal with fascism? I ask those questions mindful of Stanley Cavell's statement that "Nothing a philosopher says can insure that you will not act immorally."
On Friday it was discovered that Tyler Robinson, arrested for the alleged killing of Charlie Kirk, had inscribed messages on the casings of several bullets found at the crime scene. One of those read "Hey fascist! Catch!" accompanied by an up arrow symbol, a right arrow, and three down arrows, a reference to the code to call down the 500KG Bomb stratagem in the cooperative shooter Helldivers 2.
Howard assembles an impressive cast, though it isn't always enough to make up for the overambitious plot of a film that drags in the middle. Yet the historical resonance, which could have provided pointed commentary on the parallels between today and the 1920s, falls flat amid the film's overlong runtime, unlikable characters and shaky accents that most actors stumble in and out of. In the midst of the film's crafted chaos, the story inevitably loses focus.
Hasan asks whether Connor believes in democracy. No, Connor replies—he prefers autocracy, identifies as a fascist, idolizes General Francisco Franco, and believes free speech should be abolished after a Catholic nationalist ethnostate is actualized.
In the Netherlands in 1943, more than 6,200 Dutch doctors -97 percent of the profession-refused orders to register with the Nazi-controlled Chamber of Physicians. This registry was intended to force doctors to cooperate with racial and ableist screening, deportations, sterilization, and euthanasia policies.
The arrival of neo-Nazi active clubs in Canada represents a concerning trend, with groups espousing fascist ideologies emerging in various nations, including Canada and Europe.
Americans have at least three tools to resist fascism: legal, legislative, and via political movement. A great many people have conflated legislative opposition with movement opposition.
Director Serkan Nihat's 'Exodus' critiques Erdogan's Turkey through multi-character narratives, depicting education, policing, and persecution but suffers from a didactic style that dulls engagement.
We're like people on the Titanic saying our ship can't sink, Shore said. And what you know as a historian is that there is no such thing as a ship that can't sink.
Robert Einstein was cousin to the famous physicist Albert Einstein, both having a deep familial bond formed during their childhood in 19th-century Munich.
