"In his new book “How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them,” Yale
professor Jason Stanley warns about the dangers of normalizing fascist
politics, writing, “What normalization does is transform the morally
extraordinary into the ordinary. It makes us able to tolerate what was
once intolerable by making it seem as if this is the way things have
always been.” We speak with Jason Stanley in New York."

Note: Two parts. Be sure to look at the second part as well! (Links on
the top right under the heading "More from this Interview").  Via Muse.
