Reagan wasn’t the only person to predict that fascism would re-emerge with more friendly face. Late comedian George Carlin, who was no right-winger and certainly no fan of the 40th president, famously warned that fascism would return with a “smile on its face.”
Today, leftists lead the way in shutting down voices of conservatives, committing violence against people they disagree with, and championing ever bigger government. Reagan’s scary prediction has come true.
Of course, today liberalism is now called progressivism. Anyone who understands the history of political movements in this country knows that progressivism is just another word for communism. Many years ago the label communism became a bad word in this country. So the communists started calling themselves progressives in order to fool the people. Their ideology did not change. Just the label that they used for themselves did.
