This week on Yeah Nah Pasaran!<\/a> we talk to Meghan Conroy [Twitter<\/a>]. Meghan works at the Digital Forensic Research Lab<\/a> and Accelerationism Research Consortium<\/a> and was formerly a researcher for the January 6th Committee<\/a>. We spoke to Meghan about their work with the Committee, accelerationism, banal fascism and more.<\/p>\n

Fascism is on the rise globally, and within Western nations there has been a marked increase in fascism as a decentralized and increasingly mainstream movement. We argue that research on fascism should not approach it as a top-down belief system, but should instead consider the ways fascism is embedded or \u201ccoded\u201d within the mundane elements of everyday life. This phenomenon, which we have termed \u201cbanal fascism,\u201d is drawn from Michael Billig\u2019s concept<\/a> of \u201cbanal nationalism,\u201d which describes how nationalism is constantly reproduced in banal, but not necessarily benign ways. Our analysis of the inherent banality of fascism as it manifests today also draws from fourteen \u201ceternal\u201d traits, what Umberto Eco famously referred to as Ur-Fascism.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
