"Frankly, any politician who supports that fascist bill."

Speaking of fascism, Umberto Eco had a few words to say about that back in 1995 - words which ring uncomfortably true today when you use them as a checklist against utterances of politcians today:

Bear in mind that Mr Eco lived through the rise of Italian Fascism and got to see it "up close and personal"

A government matching a couple of items on the list is one thing. Once you can start tickiing off most of them, serious problems are brewing
