        This is it.

        People keep insisting that the populace would win a war of populace against state… maybe it would, I don’t know and it’s not the problem.

        The problem is a war of half the populace against the state and the other half of the populace. Fascism is carried into power by popular demand, it’s not like one day they just appear on the levers of power and have to put up with a revolting population. They will have been put there by the population, and it will be the better armed half of the population.
