Fascism with a smiley face
Dafydd Ab Hugh (who may be Welsh) offers up a terrified sarcasm on the telos of government intervention in the age of Obama.
Thank goodness the government of Barack H. Obama dodged the temptation to allow the Party — sorry, I mean the State — to own all industries; that would be Marxism (which would presumably thrill Anita Dunce). Instead, the banks and industries will all be privately owned — but the owners will take orders directly from the Party.
State, whatever.
Such an arrangement is not Marxism; it’s fascism, as classically defined. But with the Obamacle, it’s liberal fascism, fascism with a smiley face.

Once again: Anti-fascism is the new fascism.
