Abstract

Potential exists for a Great Recession recursion of the U.S. into post-Depression Euro-Asian fascism given “Tea-party” electoral co-optation of Republican Party politics. Literary anti-colonialism as cognitive dissonance effects antithesis against U.S. historical “true-believer” Tea-party antiscience. We proffer triangulation as Leon Festinger dissonance reduction functions similar magnetic resonance imaging of neurophysiology as Hegel-Fichte dialectical synthesis and propose that Democratic Party campaign discourse emulate Pierre Trudeau political enactment of Francofile bilingualism in Canada as flagship Obama-era politics.
