About This Quote

  The American fascist is one who in case of conflict puts money and power ahead of human beings. We all like to think we would never be one of them, but we all know someone who could be considered. For example, the one who screams at the driver in front of them because they cut them off. The one who drives too fast and drives like a maniac to get to work on time, you know the kind.

We all know someone like that and it's extremely frustrating when you're stuck behind them, but there's nothing you can really do about it because they won't listen to reason. The fact that there are many people in this country that would put money and power ahead of humanity, is actually a very scary thing. I believe in the freedom and liberty so many Americans hold so dear and in the fact that we should all be able to live our lives without fear of being harmed or killed by someone else's irrational actions, but this type of behavior does inspire fear and anxiety when it comes to our safety and security at home and in our community.
