elementary education in fascist italy. good morning to both of you. thank you for joining us for this nuanced discussion. this is definitely one that can't be taken out of context. we have to be very specific in how we are discussing comparisons about fascism today with fascism in the past. let me start with you, christopher. in the atlantic piece, you noted that for a long time, you were reluctant, for obvious reasons, to apply the term fascist to donald trump and his movement, because it trivializes the history of the world. but you reached a point, where i think you realize that something dangerous is happening in america, and it requires an updated definition about fascism. tell me a bit more about that. >> yes. i was reluctant to use the term because two key historical examples of fascism and power have been mussolini and hitler. and they have been noted for three things, totalitarian dictatorship, wars of aggression and conquest, and a vast violation of human rights in the areas they conquered, and with hitler even outright genocide.
