@madopal @pluralistic The usual fascist strategy is that when the disastrous effects of policies start to be felt, they’re blamed on opponents of the regime, and the Maximum Leader calls for new, stronger measures against the designated enemies du jour.

The Leader is good and wise, and the leader’s policies are optimal. Therefore, if they don’t work, it must be sabotage.

This can work for a while. How long it works depends on how many people are committed to the scam, and how deeply.
