How Fascism Works by Jason F. Stanley Summary
Overview of How Fascism Works

The Politics of Division: Fascism's Playbook Revealed
Democracy thrives on shared truths, but what happens when reality itself becomes contested? In 2016, Donald Trump resurrected the "America First" slogan-a phrase with troubling roots in Charles Lindbergh's pre-WWII movement that opposed fighting Nazi Germany while promoting white supremacist ideals. This wasn't coincidental. When Trump's strategist Steve Bannon spoke of making America's future "as exciting as the 1930s," he was evoking the era of America's greatest sympathy for fascism. As the son of Holocaust survivors, Jason Stanley brings both scholarly precision and personal urgency to his analysis of how fascist tactics operate in modern politics. His central insight-that fascism begins not with violence but with words-makes his work particularly relevant as populist movements gain momentum globally. But what exactly makes these words so dangerous, and why do they resonate with so many?
