I've seen pictures of a number of No-Kings protesters carrying signs saying
this, and I was surprised to learn that a song of this title was released
in 2004.

But the story doesn't end there....

1993 _Cinicinnati Post_ (July 1) 18A [Newspapers.com]: All are biblically
based, all preach hatred, all aspire to genocide. This city needs to wake
up and smell the fascism.

2001 _Stamford Advocate_ (Dec. 11) A16 [Ibid.]: It's time to wake up and
smell the fascism.
