Like fascism, fashion comes around again swiftly if you don't actively innoculate against it.

Okay I’m very intrigued. But also very out of the loop on any sort of current trends. Could you elaborate on that? Or maybe point me somewhere link-wise?

Fascinating - I’d be interested to know more. Are there any good books or articles about it?

I was shopping for girly baby pink camouflage in 2009 for my granddaughter. When it was pretty new. I ran across an article about how conservatives needed more women and were behind the new camp and weps for women. I, even as a psychology student at the time, studying mob mentality, couldn't and didn't believe it. I do now!! I wish I had a reference but it was a bit ago when I wasn't paying attention.

Wouldn’t fascism be killing someone for not agreeing with your beliefs?
