    #SteveBannon is a nationalist, but not a white nationalist. Not exactly. More economic nationalist and clash-of-civilizationalist. 1/x

        That's more dangerous. Americans strongly dislike white nationalism (well... most do), but more would be open to #Bannon's version. 2/x

        Trump's #Bannon-penned inaugural address was unnerving because it was hardcore nationalist without being racial. 3/xhttps://extranewsfeed.com/okay-then-nationalism-it-is-3d2e90a962e2 …

        It fit fascist theory, rather than the "master race" version the Italians and especially Germans practiced. #SteveBannon 4/x

        Fascist theory is built around "Organicism": citizen is to nation as cell is to body. You don't matter. Only the nation matters #Bannon 5/x

        In its purist form, that's not racialized. All citizens can be a part of it. If they pledge absolute, unquestioned loyalty. #Bannon 6/x

        #Bannon wanted massive infrastructure spending to reward/buy loyalty of workers, & trade war with China. He didn't want #Charlottesville 7/x

        #SteveBannon wants civilizational war against Islam, but wants non-white Christians, Jews, and atheists to fight on his side. 8/x

        After the election, there was a window in which #Bannon's hypernationalist vision might have worked. But, thankfully, Trump messed it up 9/x

        Trump agreed with #PaulRyan to do #healthcare first. He was more interested in Reality TV-style media fights than passing legislation. 10/x

        But he won't give up. He'll fight for his nationalist vision in the media and behind the scenes. He really believes in it. #SteveBannon 12/x

        The neo-Nazis and white supremacists make #Bannon's nationalism look bad. He wants it to have wide appeal and thinks it can. 14/x

        That's the saving grace of the Trump administration. They're too incompetent to pull off real fascism. #SteveBannon 15/15 (END)

        PS: Hypernationalist-but-not-white-nationalist is why #Bannon called his main enemy "globalists." (Plus other main enemy China).

        PS2: And yes, "globalist" is sort of code for "Jew," in the Elders of Zion sense. But not exactly. #SteveBannon

        PS3: The key for #Bannon was strict agreement with his vision of national, civilizational loyalty. Not necessarily race or religion.

        Passionate moderate. Staunchly non-partisan. Trump critic because America. And thanks. Glad you liked the thread.

        Hairsplitting. The attitude is what counts at last and what encourages the ultra right to commit their crimes. A Nazi is a Nazi is a Nazi.

        Not defending him. Not even close. I'm pointing out how those subtle differences made him more dangerous. He's smarter than the neo-Nazis.
