Yeah, the Nazis weren't really subtle. If you instead maintain a civil front inward for public support, you can wreak havoc more effectively.

That's why fascism is a different kind of danger. It wouldn't leech off of other places for centuries, it would explosively and directly attack internal and external enemies.

Neither of these things can be risked.
