While there have been many good depictions on how fascism comes to #USA, I believe the Purge movie franchise @universalhorror is the most relevant today. muslimmediareview.blogspot.com/2015/12/review…. I'm hoping @ThePurgeTV will portray how the terrible cocktail of Christian Dominionist & Ayn Randian

morality of hating the poor & good-old fashioned American white supremacy is a precursor to the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA). Also, it's worth remembering that we already consider the rest of the world to be subject to purging, as we in the USA don't believe

international law constrains us. We believe we are free to bomb, arm, starve, blockade, seize assets from & deny refuge to anybody we want. We also are leaders in changing the global environment such that many human societies will collapse. Finally, we refuse to dismantle our

nuclear weapons, which might also end human civilization. Let's also remember that in certain areas against black & brown populations, law barely constrains #police from doing what it likes. #ThePurge is partly here, the rest of it is not too far off.
