Information Adviser Mahfuj Alam today warned of a potential resurgence of fascism, cautioning against growing intolerance and new forms of oppression.
In a post on his verified Facebook profile this evening, Mahfuj wrote: "The oppressed are becoming oppressors, and anti-fascists are becoming fascists. The current situation is filled with frustration and anger. Those who replace injustice with new forms of oppression and violence will be responsible for the revival of fascism."
He further said that "if diversity within society and the state is suppressed, fascism will return, and the spirit of the July revolution will collapse."
Mahfuj also called for an end to all forms of repression against dissenting voices, including fakirs, bauls, and others who hold alternative viewpoints.
