When I was writing about Churchill and Orwell I would wonder why everyone sat back and just let the 1930s happen. Having experienced the last 6 or so years in the US, I no longer wonder.

The slide into extremism seems to happen much like the way Hemingway described the process of going bankrupt in The Sun Also Rises:

"Gradually, then suddenly."

Timothy Burgess ([twitter.com profile] TheTimBurgess), 2021-09-23:

And this from Hemingway:

"But are there not many fascists in your country?"

"There are many who do not know they are fascists but will find it out when the time comes."
