What the hell is "fascism?"If you give me a dictionary definition, does it have anything to do with reality?
>>518725624Observance of traditional Roman law.
Fascism is an autocratic government ruled by a dictator that practiced a corporatist economic policy and concerns itself primarily with reform from a previous dysfunctional system. QED: Benito Mussolini's Italy.Meanwhile, the undereducated and mentally stunted think any degree of authoritarianism is "fascism"
Apparently all you have to do is disagree with liberand you're automatically fascist
>>518725809>autocratic >dictator>corporatist You just gave me three more definitions to look up. Mussolini was the least murderous dictator in history. Why he is even on the bad-guy list is beyond me.
>>518726241>Why he is even on the bad-guy list is beyond me.Because history is written by the victor, and the victor is usually a colossal liar.
>>518726241I gave you the definition faggot, if you disregard it and indulge some overexplaining dipshit with his head up his arse then we both know you don't want the definition at all.
>>518726548Then define them.>autocratic>dictator>corporatist
>>518725706>>518726548Your definition doesn't explain enough, especially since "traditional Roman law" can be several different things. SPQR law, Western Imperial law, Byzantine law, HRE law...

>>518725624fasces = latin for bundle (of sticks)yes, also funnily enough fasces is also the root word for "faggot" referring to the useless kid who was sent out to at least collect some "fags" or sticks to make a bundle of firewood.fascism is a counter-ideology to communism which tries to "bundle" classes together seeking symbiosis of worker and investor classes but each country interpreted it a bit differently because this bundling of such opposing forces able to absorb the left as well as the right and the upper as well as lower classes must follow a strict unitary principle. in italy it was progress and "futurism", in germany it was the benefit of the volk, in spain it was catholicism. one could argue that islamic countries are para-fascist because islam also has this unitary concept in the form of hyper-monotheism but without the natural balance of volk and nature. one could even argue that judaism has fascism like qualities as it manages to "bundle" a very diverse global jewry with the unifying concept of "jewishness" where the monotheism is but one of the factors of this transnational identity.this is what most misunderstand about fascism: it's not just some cartoonish dictatorship where it's a small minority oppressing a majority with draconian measures and top-down terror - fascism by definition is a populist movement which can only exist and function if it has the support of the majority of fags to form a mighty faggot. even though fascism is a modern ideology it lends heavily from past proto-fascist entities like ancient city states where the individual served the "polis" and all decisions were made in quasi-democratic form. Yes, fascism and democracy can overlap because in the end fascist just means "a group of individual people actively working together towards the same goal". this is also why the ideal capitalist corporation is a fascist entity (but only if all the employees actually support the goals otherwise it's just a regular dictatorship).
Fascism, in modern terms, is defined as "any political stance or government action i disapprove of."It's why they keep calling Trump a fascist despite him being a stalinist.
>what the fuck is this word invented by communists to complain about people with more loyalty to the state than them
>>518725624Fascism is the application of aesthetic theories onto the political and social sphere combined with the idea that reality is fluid and tied to metaphysics, meaning that presentation and ritual can have real observable impacts on reality.really its very heart is Platonism mixed with Catholic ideas of purity and Eastern esotericism (especially Muslim and Hindu).
>>518727009You replied to the wrong guy I assume, but sure I'll tell you:>AutocraticSpecifically a government ruled by a single person with absolute authority.>DictatorGenerally speaking: A person whose supreme authority is derived from a government mandate. More specifically a ruler who is not a monarch or a living god. (All dictators are tyrants but not all tyrants are dictators.)>corporatistA socioeconomic system in which corporations are the primary controlling parties. In fascism the ideas of "corporations" and "unions" are synonymous, thus corporations have a great deal of sway in culture and law.
>>518727543I said traditional Roman law faggot, can you read or are you just stupid?
Fascism is patriotism for one's countryCommunism is patriotism for one's government
>>518729302Ah yes, because everyone knows the half dozen different governments calling themselves Rome or its successor all had the same laws.
>>518725624Well this is what happens when one side insists that the meaning of every word they don't like needs to be changed. Soon, most words mean little to nothing. See "What is a woman."
>>518729302they all agreed on everything and did everything the same way all the time right?
