CHAPTER VIII: “OUR SOULS ARE BROKEN” –
“FEEL, DON’T THINK! BE VISCERAL!” – MICHELLE
OBAMA, POSTMODERN FASCIST IDEOLOGUE
“Mrs. Obama’s statement is nothing less than a renunciation of democracy and an embrace of
fascism. The basic idea of liberty is that people have a natural right to live their lives as usual
and to be uninvolved and uninformed. And they certainly have a right to expect that their
government will butt out of their souls.” - (Caroline Glick, “Obama the Savior,” Jerusalem Post,
April 22, 2008)
As fascism’s founding father, Benito Mussolini, once said: ...”Think with your blood.”^138
“Denken mit eurem Blute!” - “Think with your blood!” - Hitler
One of the slogans of the Nazi S.A. was “Think with your blood.” We don’t need that.^139
“Think with your blood.” – NSDAP slogan.On January 31 of this year, the oaf Keith Olbermann donned his most serious face and most
indignant tone of voice to rail against George Bush for supporting telecom immunity and revisions
to FISA. In a 10-minute “Special Comment,” the MSNBC star condemned Bush for wanting to
“retroactively immunize corporate criminals,” and said that telecom immunity is “an ex post facto
law, which would clear the phone giants from responsibility for their systematic, aggressive and
blatant collaboration with [Bush’s] illegal and unjustified spying on Americans under this flimsy
guise of looking for any terrorists who are stupid enough to make a collect call or send a mass
email.” Olbermann added that telecom amnesty was a “shameless, breathless, literally textbook
example of Fascism — the merged efforts of government and corporations that answer to no
government.” Noting the numerous telecom lobbyists connected to the Bush administration,
Olbermann said: “This is no longer just a farce in which protecting telecoms is dressed up as
protecting us from terrorists’ conference cells. Now it begins to look like the bureaucrats of the
Third Reich, trying to protect the Krupp family, the industrial giants, re-writing the laws of
Germany for their benefit.^140
Of course, this was before Obama voted in favor of the rotten compromise with FISA in June- But the important idea here is the thesis about the nature of fascism that Olbermann is trying
to sell. In a later chapter, we will show that the Obama campaign is the closest thing to a classic
1919-1922 fascist movement that we have ever seen here in the United States. Fascism, we must
always remember, is not a top-down phenomenon; it starts with a radical, anti-establishment protest
movement with many grievances – a movement that masquerades as an authentic, grass-roots,
bottom-up social phenomenon, and hides the fact that it has been funded and created by bankers.
The movement centers around a demagogic mob orator who makes utopian promises about
overcoming despair and restoring the position of the nation in the world by refurbishing the
mystical unity of the people. The fascist movement struggles for power by striving to weaken and
destroy political parties, trade unions, sports groups, clubs, publications, media networks, and all
other institutions which might provide support for resistance against fascism.
Later on, if it is successful, the fascist mass movement will transform itself into a totalitarian and
dictatorial regime, often liquidating its own plebeian and populist tendencies in the process. As the
fascist regime consolidates and solidifies, it gradually comes to resemble an old-style, top-down
dictatorship or bureaucratic-authoritarian regime. But the point is that, without the destruction of
