The best way to defeat fascism is calling it out as stupid and parodying it. It's why Mel Brookes is so effective with Springtime for Hitler. Because, really, the beliefs of fascism are weird and the pageantry around it is *bizarre*. It really doesn't hold up if you can change the framing of it. I really do think it goes a long way in delegitamizing their movement in a way that's impossible to flip back onto Democrats, because progressive policy is actually *popular*.
