Is there a genuine threat of fascism taking power? (lemmygrad.ml)

With the rapidly worsening of the material conditions of the general population in the 'west', will we see a rerun of the early 20th century? I feel we are approaching the point where the bourgeoisie are so desperate to cling on that the 'democratic' institutions of today might be in danger.

I’d argue visible minorities are already under fash conditions and have been for centuries.

Sooner or later they will come for invisible minorities, and then Foucault’s boomerang will also mean that even the very people fascism wants to “help” will be hurt too sooner or later.
