Malkin, Proto-Fascist

David Neiwert at Orcinus does a great job, as usual, of examining proto-fascism, this time in the case of Michelle Malkin. (via Atrios)

I read The Man in the High Castle recently, a story about what the world would have been like had the Axis won the war, written in 1962.

The German consul in San Francisco was reading a book about what the world would have been like had the Allies won the war, and he got so angry, he started considering sending someone to the author's home in the Rocky Mountain States to kill him, because that would teach him.

Fascists are the same everywhere through all time, whether they know it or not.
