There is one missing. A population ignoring/dismissing the signs.

Sadly true, Barbara. I would note that the author of the article from which the list on the poster was taken--Laurence Britt--noted in his opening paragraph:

"And fascism’s principles are wafting in the air today, surreptitiously masquerading as something else, challenging everything we stand for. The cliché that people and nations learn from history is not only overused, but also overestimated; often we fail to learn from history, or draw the wrong conclusions. Sadly, historical amnesia is the norm."
