Lookup fascism.

It's anyone "they" convince you is "them".

Don't forget to check out which people use the "Us vs Them" mentality the most :)

Using it to describe the vernacular is different than employing the tactic.

Mussolini, Hitler, and Stalin are all dead.

Seems it's a safe thing to describe it.

Why is it a safe way to describe it? Just because you deem yourself on the "right side" doesn't make the mentality any less dangerous.
