In a world of fascists, ur-fascism can be defined as irrationalism. Ur-fascism stems from personal or societal dissatisfaction, which may lead to the world being regarded as racist. I think the United States is now experiencing a sort of Ur-fascism. One such instance occurred on January 7th in Washington, D.C., when Trump supporters rushed into the capitol. A bunch of individuals were enraged that Trump would not be re-elected, so they determined to cause mayhem.
As a result of the commotion, individuals risked their lives to fight for a man who would not be re-elected. Donald Trump sparked the chaos with his social media statements and continues to enrage his supporters in order to persuade them to follow him. To summarize, Ur-fascism is alive and well today, and if it is not contained, America will continue to devolve into anarchy.
