    Woodrow Wilson was an authoritarian socialist, but not a Marxist-a short definition of fascism.
    Jonah Goldberg can be an asshole, but can be a fair critic.
    Calling Wilson a Fascist is an anachronism, as he was out of office before Mussolini and Gentile staged their takeover of Italy.

    It's all fascism, or fascist (top down) economics, unless your desire socialism (bottom up) economics ... its really pretty simply put in general terms.
    I started calling western democracies fascism with a happy face over 40 years ago, today we see that mask dropping. However, i Don't agree with the Hitler mustache, nazism was a ideology forced upon the public, like Zionism and Zelenskyism, the idea of supremacy of race.
    Fascism in it purist form is a gathering of nobles, or wealthy corporations and individuals in collusion with governance, politicians specifically to negate and disguard the mass general public want and will by use of illusion of delusional narratives.
    But time and time again i see and hear fascism and associated fascist terms to refer to the nazi Hitler imagery, meaning if the governance doesn't look and sound like Hitler and Nazism then all is good and ok.
    Pretty much from the founding of corporate America over 248 years ago has been fascist at its roots, politics control by wealth by wealthy persons, for wealthy persons, the rest of us are simply workers, artist, educators, etc.
    Fascism can also be looked at as modified feudalism, everything comes from someplace in history, it reforms and adjusts but soon it returns to its most basic control device, brute force aggression and containment of anything in its smallest form demands change.

      Socialism is the most top down structure you could have, central planning. Fascism has central planning because fascism is anti-capitalism, while also being anti-socialist.
      Your historical analysis is sooooo wrong. Capitalism was the succession to mercantilism which succeeded from feudalism. Monarchy is fascism by your definition, making the term literally useless in practice. the kaiserreich wasn’t fascist.

      You don't understand but not a surprise, western brain washing, planning is always from the top, but it's the priorities are that are different as black and white, one seeks the comfort of all, the other seeks the comfort of the wealthy.
      Keep ideology and economics separate functions.

      @@justsomedude77 Capitalism has a natural tendency to result in monopoly, as occurred around the year 1900 in the U.S.
      One response to this is what occurred in the U.S. under President Theodore Roosevelt, the dissolution of monopolies into competing corporations - the artificial restoration of the status quo ante.
      Another is the creation of a national regime to regulate these monopolies - the process followed in Japan under the military dictatorship 1924-1945.
      Yet another is the rise of worker councils to control local factories and farms, seizing or simply ignoring the formal ownership, as occurred for a short period during the fall of the Czarist government in Russia in 1917, and again during the collapse of the USSR in 1991.
      Competing corporations have proven to be a failure, as have regulated monopolies. I think it's time to finally allow the workers to seize control of the means of production.
