There's an old aphorism in Hollywood (of all places!) that provides an apt description of the problem where an up-&-coming-type, or an old has-been, has gone off the rails, despite outside appearances of having "all the right stuff"... one who has lost all sense of proportion or reality.
(I'm not usually in the habit of borrowing quotations from H'wood-at-large, tho' pithy, old-fashioned common sense & machismo from the likes of John Wayne, Bogart, et al are an entirely forgivable exception to that rule...)
I mention this because it seems *so* illustrative in the present case. Much like show-biz celebs who have become *entirely* too enamored of their own personality-cults, our little antagonist "deleted4506018" has now proven with the above quote that he/she/it "reads too many of his own press-clippings!" (One is supposed to remember at all times that all the favorable reviews are generated by *paid* hacks, and bear no reliable relationship to reality whatsoever!)
Meanwhile, in a stunning display of ignorance to the meaning of the words "bitter irony", the entire Left-o-sphere accuses *US* of living in an echo-chamber/bubble where no outside truths can ever penetrate... >*snort!*<

ps: Why do I find myself wondering if this f'idiot fleabagger is submitting his polysyllabic meanderings to his Alinsky-philic college professor for actual grades/extra-credit? Why do I further expect said professor to give an "A+" for his inconsequential and inconsistent effluvia??

Dr. Moreno has some cogent thoughts here, though as earlier commenters have noted, he might have "closed the circle" rather better vis-a-vis the Republic that is the True Legacy of the Founders. But the greater puzzle to me is how & why BG's Editor-in-Chief Mike Flynn allowed this post before it was proofed and ready-for-prime-time, you know? I mean, come on, "Democarcy"? IN THE TITLE/HEADLINE??! Please!
While many of us can see through the errata to discern Dr. Moreno's intended meaning(s), I can't see my way clear to re-posting or linking this to others, as if to tacitly approve such sloppy scrivening... PLEASE, Dr. Moreno AND Editor Flynn: we CAN do better!

"Fascism" is NOT anywhere on the "Right" half of the political spectrum, it never was and it never will be! In a nutshell, starting from the center, in INCREASING order-of-magnitude (i.e., each next "ism" being further to the LEFT of center):
LIBERALISM, featuring enlarged gov't, with attendant increased regulation of citizens' lives and occupations;
FASCISM, which still features broad private OWNERSHIP of property & enterprise, but near-total gov't control of BOTH;
SOCIALISM, where little of consequence is privately owned, and everything of consequence is gov't regulated;
COMMUNISM, where private property & enterprise ceases utterly to exist, under a totally controlling central gov't.
PLEASE CEASE AND DESIST with the Conservatives-as-Fascist BS!! (Somehow, I just KNOW if I dare to mention "Jonah Goldberg" in my next breath, the howling Lib-Trolls will emerge from their lairs... (*sigh*)
Burt, Andrew -- a little HELP here? ~ thankyouverymuch, DW
