When you’re using “traditionally” as a euphemism for “according to the the constitution and law” then you have already compromised your standards.

The thing to understand about fascism is that most people you know will be bought off. Bought with promises of peace and stability, bought with business opportunities or paid with actual cash. Most people aren't going to resist. Get used to it and get used to operating in that environment.
