(According to the internet) This episode delves into the dystopian worlds of Terry Gilliam's "Brazil" and Sinclair Lewis's novel ‘It Can't Happen Here’ The hosts and guest Jeffery X Martin analyze how the film's brutalist architecture and bureaucratic absurdities, combined with the book's prescient depiction of a fascist takeover in America, serve as urgent warnings. They explore the disturbing parallels between these works and current political realities, prompting a discussion on complacency, resistance, and the frightening speed of democratic decline. Originally VD Clinic Pod EPISODE 10 – It’s Fascist February 2018 ! Vanessa & Daeron are joined by author/ podcaster Jeffery X Martin to discuss Terry Gilliam’s “Brazil” & the Sinclair Lewis novel “It Can’t Happen Here.” We talk fascism, bureaucracy, & lots of anxiety. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
