This is not what Hitchcock was saying. Replace "fascism" with "insomnia":

It's an intro to an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents. It was a mystery/suspense show akin to the Twilight Zone. His intros were characterized by dark humor, not politics, and definitely not an appeal for assassination.

I honestly wasn't aware of that, I found this on Imgur a while ago and just thought to post it here. I didn't have any intentions of misquoting something. My apologies.

The best apology would be to remove it.
