Reactionaries all over the world long for a bygone age in which burly men doing hard physical labor ruled the roost and made their country great. What makes American reactionaries different from their European counterparts?
Let’s put it this way: Trump 1.0 identified “the other” as illegal immigrants, but Trump 2.0 will say that anyone who voted against him in 2020 is the enemy. Demonizing over half your population, and openly proposing to oppress them, is uniquely dangerous. It’s also hard sledding in elections unless the system itself has been corrupted, which, of course, is logically the next step in the process.
