Reddit reviews Alt-America: The Rise of the Radical Right in the Age of Trump

"And she, my family, and our friends are not fascists but they often support fascist ideals without know it." - there, that's it. EVERY leftist goes through this at some point.

One of the first things you could do is educate them on the origins of fascism. I mean this in a non confrontational sense. The unlearning process can be a painful one though so many people will disengage. It's tricky, all you can do is supply the information. Through learning the origins of what fascism is, they may grasp how it never went away and how it still effects us, daily. You could start with the following quote:

"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Giovanni Gentile
