Carl Schmitt: The Mind Behind Modern Fascism | Behind The Bastards

Every democracy is inherently exclusionary because every democracy has borders, and anyone outside of those borders do not enjoy the democratic freedoms of the state.

What fascist have learned is to overthrow a liberal democracy you must:

“find that border, where ever it exists, and you start pushing inward. And as you start pushing inward from that border, you start fracturing the Democratic consensus that exists until you can destroy democracy. And that’s how you gain power.”
