Pat KahnkeHOST
I would say that on the us versus you guys, I think you're really hitting the most important point there.
Pat KahnkeHOST
There's a book that Jason Stanley wrote called Fascism, The Politics of Us Versus Them.
Pat KahnkeHOST
I'm not asking you to use the word fascism, but I'm saying this pattern is, I think, in everything that we see right now.

Lee McGowanHOST
I've wanted to have today's guest on the show for a long time.
Lee McGowanHOST
Jason Stanley is the American philosopher, previously a tenured professor at Yale, who is now the Bassel Head Chair in American Studies at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Toronto.
Lee McGowanHOST
He is also the author of seven books, including How Fascism Works, Erasing History, How Propaganda Works, and The Politics of Language.
Lee McGowanHOST
Jason left the country with other Yale academics, including Timothy Snyder and Marci Shore, for the University of Toronto in April of 2025.
Lee McGowanHOST
At the time, Jason said he was leaving America as a direct response to the political climate under the Trump administration, government pressure on higher education, and America's descent into authoritarianism.
Lee McGowanHOST
So as we sit here today on the precipice of what could be our very last election, I wanted to speak to Jason to see what he thinks those of us who haven't left America should be doing right now.
Lee McGowanHOST
So without further ado, please welcome my guest, political philosopher, prolific author, and leading scholar on the topic of fascism, Jason Stanley.
Jason StanleyGUEST
Thank you.
Peyron BaxterHOST
It's always tomorrow.
Peyron BaxterHOST
But there's this, it's why people say that the concept itself of nostalgia is a fascist, is a fascist tenet, right? In Tim Snyder's book, On Tyranny, Jason Stanley's book, How Fascism Works, they talk about the allure of fascism.
Peyron BaxterHOST
I mean, excuse me, the allure of nostalgia, right? Weaponize nostalgia.
Peyron BaxterHOST
It was better before we let all of these blacks get riots.
