We have a very good documentary film shot in 1965 by famous Soviet director Mikhail Romm. It is called "Ordinary Fascism" and has nothing to do with communism propaganda as somebody may think seeing definition "Soviet" near the director's name. It "aims tyranny and despothism in any form it may take". The main thought of the film is that "fascism is a tendence to solve complex problems with simple methods" or "when aim justifies measures". I recommend to use this sentences as a lacmus paper considering one's own thoughts, sentences and deeds. So when one is starting to act like this - he (or she) is closing a dangerous border. IMHO of course. And I highly recommend to watch this film if it is available outside Russia.
