요약The January 6, 2021, insurrection at the United States Capitol exposed the rising white nationalism and fascism that had long existed in the nation's cultural and political infrastructure. This dissertation explores this rise as a result of banal fascism, a concept that describes the way elements of fascism seep into U.S. mainstream culture, becoming normalized and mundane. Among other theorizations, it draws from Michael Billig's Banal Nationalism and Umberto Eco's Ur-Fascism to analyze the ways that a particular type of American fascism has developed over time through strategic branding and grassroots organizing by Christian nationalist organizers of the 1940s, anti-LGBTQ+ crusaders of the 1970s to the MAGA movement of Donald Trump's presidency. Taken together, this offers a unique perspective on a hidden fascist framework and explores how political and cultural flashpoints can be used by political leaders to mobilize through banal rhetoric and strategies to spread fascist policy and legislation in the U.S. mainstream.This dissertation asks how historic organizing strategies by the far-right have been appropriated and altered to form an increasingly extremist political base in the United States today. Likewise, it argues that decades of organization by Christian nationalists, militant communities, and white supremacist women's movements have led to the current political climate that resulted in an insurrection on the nation's Capital building on January 6, 2021. This dissertation explores the ways that old and new media have been used to spread fascist ideals to a broad audience through social media content, branded goods, and iconography. It examines multiple social groups that share ideological and political ties with more extreme far-right organizations providing a banal veneer through their branding and rhetoric to integrate into a broad mainstream culture.Using a combination of media discourse analysis and social media platform analysis each chapter offers an exploration of a key element in the rise and maintenance of fascism in the United States and the ways that it has remained hidden and banal under the guise of Christianity, patriotism, neoliberal capitalism, and white motherhood. This dissertation spans roughly from the 1930s to 2023, primarily focusing on the contemporary era since the Trump administration. Through an examination of cultural goods, political strategies, and white nationalist narratives this dissertation claims fascism has always found an easy home in the United States even as it remains hidden behind the flag and the cross.
