It is no coincidence that the growth of modern tyrants has in every case been heralded by the growth of prejudice.

During the next four years...unless drastic steps are taken by Congress, the U.S. will have nearly 8,000,000 unemployed and will stand on the brink of a deep depression.

If we define an American fascist as one who in case of conflict puts money and power ahead of human beings, then there are undoubtedly several million fascists in the United States. There are probably several hundred thousand if we narrow the definition to include only those who in their search for money and power are ruthless and deceitful.

The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact.

The century which we are entering can be and must be the century of the common man.

Most American fascists are enthusiastically supporting the war effort. They are doing this even in those cases where they hope to have profitable connections with German chemical firms after the war ends.

The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information.
