According to Osho, American fascism is a disguised authoritarianism that operates behind democratic masks; Germany largely imitates it, with its chancellor a 'puppet' of Washington. Because Hitler tainted the very words fascism and nazism, Germany must hide the reality even more carefully. In both cases, the core is the same: concentrated power corrupts, so governments inevitably drift from democracy toward fascist control.
Both the U.S. and Germany act like hidden bullies calling themselves democracies; Germany copies the U.S. and hides it more because of its past.
