This is a very eye opening book, I understood that the US has been moving to fascism at an alarming rate but I did not realize the full extent of it. Now in this current political environment, this is probably the most important book to read. 

Stanley goes over the many rhetorics within fascist politics in a historical and present tense way. I found it easy to understand and very heavy in how reflective it was

CW: Racial slurs, Antisemitism, Racism, Xenophobia, Islamophobia, War, Genocide, Homophobia, Transphobia, Ableism, Colonisation, Classism. Mentions of Police brutality, Abortion, and Sexism

this is a great introduction into fascism. the title is quite literal in its about how fascism works & how fascism rhetoric/tactics ensnare certain populations/people groups to advance an agenda. this book is about how the rhetoric works, what it entails, and ways to recognize when someone is spouting it.

I imagine this will be a good companion to Stanley's How Propaganda Works book, but thats next on my reading list! how fascism works doesn't necessarily cover how to COMBAT fascistic ideology/rhetoric, but it's a great start in one's understanding of it as a whole.
