- In this video, we take a look at the political ideology of Fascism. In short, fascism is a complex and mutable political ideology, but is typically defined as a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

One thing to note is that fascism and nazism are not identical. Nazism uses the basis of fascism to promote its goals of racial hierarchy while fascism has more aspects in terms of economy, legislative and judicial politics, and other social sciences.
Put it like this.
All fruits are a form of vegetable, but not every vegetable is classified as a fruit.
Nazism is a form of fascism but not all fascists are nazis.
Wrong. Nazi sm was National Socia lism. It had nothing to do with fasc ism. Naz ism and fa scism were two completely separate socia list ideologies which were practiced in two different countries.
@@Historia-Magistra-Vitae. Yes. They are two different things. The biggest difference is that Nazism is a social ideology and Fascism in a political ideology.
@@democraticrepublicofsprout7263 : Both naz ism and fasci sm were political ideologies.
@@Historia-Magistra-Vitae.How are they socialist?
@@Angel_559_ : The government controlled the means of production, distribution and exchange of goods. That is how.
Fascism doesn’t necessarily need to be right wing. It’s economically neutral, neither needing to be socialist or capitalist. (It does tend to be right wing though)
But its not neutral every fascist country brutalized socialist, liberals and communist and the fact that capitalist and even democracies such as the west were willing to support a fascist/nationalist dictator over a socialist country. Lastly fascism are always start as an anti-socialist movements.
@@HispanicsWithNoMic lol
Yeah, the German fascist party, the NSDAP, even called itself the Nationalist Socialist German Workers Party
Fascism is inherently left wing. Right wing ideology is based on individual right while left wing is based on the collectives.
Yeah that’s why they said typically in the beginning of the video instead of 100% of the time.
I always learn something weird when I’m high, this guy can really draw
🤣
I though fascist meant "anyone who disagrees with me" 😅
Basically what it means today 😅
exactly what a fascist would say
That only means that if you are Gen Z 😂
Wow what an original and hilarious joke
To be fair, the definition of Fascism is far more complex than most realize. Today, people will basically define Fascism to fit whatever political agenda they identify with. Hence, Identity politics. Usually comes from the left these days.
So you don’t think book banning, targeting of minorities or those deemed “lesser”, or the outright removal of opposing political representatives from their duly & justly elected positions are characteristics of fascism? Crazy

Only far righters are calling "whatever they don't agree with" as fascist in response to people correctly identifying the fascist as a fascist. They don't really believe it but it's their defense to being labeled correctly.
You need to add in the element of coorporations being part of government policy making, before you can state fascism
@@orion9k actually fascism was a labor union movement
Fascism doesn't necessarily have to do with race. Nazism (which is what people are usually referring to) is the only "fascist" (if you are going to call it that) ideology that is extremely racist. Fascism was about nationalist "spirituality." Calling it far right is oversimplified imo, it is rooted in what was deemed left wing politics at the time and was basically just a schism of socialism. State control of all life is what you call extreme public over private (inb4 privatization myth)
Mexican synarcism, Brazilian integralism, Spanish falangism, Italian fascism etc etc etc weren't about race. Germany was, but so too were the national bolsheviks of Karl Otto Paetel and Ernst Niekisch, it was just normal in Germany at the time
@n45-chan "Ashkually"
-🤓
@n45-chan "I agree with you entirely. I don't believe a bit in the stupid anti-Semitic theory. I am carrying out my policy entirely for political reasons."
-Mussolini responding to Fascist scholar complaining about the racial laws
Jews founded the original fascist party (Fascio d'Azione Rivoluzionaria), and there were 10,000 jews in the fascist party. No one was killed because of the racist policies, and Italian fascists protected jews and had shootouts with the SS.
@n45-chan Italy had colonies since before fascism yet "interracial" marriage wasn't outlawed until 1937 (In Ethiopia, but there still wasn't segregation (Look up Abba Jofir), and the relationships were banned due to security purposes).
True racial segregation against jews and the natives in the colonies was only implemented 1938 and beyond to make the Germans happy, YET they still complained about fascism not being racist enough.
"Fascism and National Socialism are two fundamentally different things. There is absolutely no comparison between Fascism and National Socialism as spiritual, ideological movements."
-Heinrich Himmler (this is from 1943 to 1945)
“The Italians are extremely lax in their treatment of Jews. They protect Italian Jews both in Tunis and in occupied France and won’t permit their being drafted for work or compelled to wear the Star of David."
-Joseph Goebbels 1943
@n45 Then why were so many Jews in the party?
This video lumps the two DIFFERENT ideologies of fascism and Nazism and calls them “fascist.”
both are fascist. all nazis are fascist but not all fascists are nazis
@dapweb9373 Nazism is just one form of fascism, racism is an inherent quality of Nazism it being all about the "Master Race" while other forms of fascism are more just about the superiority of one nation over the other. Though they are all equally terrible.
@@soysauceboy2023 I’m willing to agree, but Mussolini’s fascism and Hitler’s Nazism were so different they might as well be completely different ideologies/philosophy
@@dapweb9373were they really? Both essentially said that everything is second to the strength of the group, its just that Mussolini wanted to unite Italians (nationality) and Hitler wanted to unite the Germans (race).
Nazi ideology is the German version of fascism.
Which has been corporate (aka 1%) domination of the state to Prevent Socialism from succeeding, from either ballot box or revolution.

Maybe you should reconsider your views
@@KarlSnarks why? My views aren't aggressive or racist
@@DragonsAndDragons777We only have your word for that…

Thanks! This seems so relevant now as I am hearing in all the time in todays news.
Awesome video!
So based on the definition, what is the difference between fascism and Communism? Autocratic. Suppression of opposition. Suppressoin of individual rights for the common good. Central control of the economy etc etc etc.
Well that sort of depends as to what we're referring to. The USSR you see was fascist in all of its practices and used the guise of the common good, laced with some of Marx's talking points, to gain populist support. It is worth noting in this situation that men such as Stalin and Mao essentially ran their nations as authoritarian police states which heavily contrast with the Marxian ideal of a stateless, classless society.
There is none. That's why the Soviets were called the Red Fascists.
Communism is defined as a stateless, classless, moneyless society. The Marxist-Leninists (what you think of when you think communism) called themselves communist because, although they hadn't created a communist society, they claimed they would reach one through a one party state, state capitalism, and democratic centralism. (You can compare them to Revolutionary Catalonias anarcho communist methods).
The MLs have bern criticized by both socialists and capitalists for essentially being fascist. I think they were too. If you wanted to split hairs, there are some differences.
Materialism. The fascists "common good" was strength. They thought that life was a struggle, and the struggle was all they lived for. The MLs didnt just want people to survive, they wanted people to be prosperous, especially theough material wealth, which fascism rejected.
Claims to equality. The fascists argued that they humans were fundamentally unequal, but the MLs claimed to be huilding a classless society.
Class attitudes. The MLs used class conflict, the fascists were class collaborationist. The MLs abolished the probate bourgeoisie, while the fascists worked with them.
Collectivism. Unity, to the MLs, was a means to an end. To fascists, it was the end.
Source. The fascists tended to work with the pre existing elites, maybe even using elections, while the MLs used revolution to remake the system.
@@digaddog6099so which one was BLM, more specifically the CHAZ/CHOP? They didn’t want Police, but they also only wanted one race living there
Issues like "master race" and etc .... is already quite a separate topic, although they are associated and occur in parallel (eugenics). A fundamental aspect of fascism and other totalitarian notions is the search for a common enemy to intimidate the public, where the enemy is sought is just one variable.
Funfact, today's "developed" totalitarian states, like in Europe, use a whole spectrum of enemies, now the top enemy is Russia. So the war in Ukraine will last a long time because it pays off politically
wrong. That was Hitler's view. Which is very close to the leftist views today.
The concept was popular in Germany at the time, the national bolsheviks of Ernst Niekisch and Karl Otto Paetel who both opposed national socialism also believed the Germans were a master race
@@eeee-rp1hpreally ??
Is it similar to how straight white men are demonized in America? They are made out to be the enemy of the general population when in fact most straight white men aren't the wealthy, ruling majority.
🇿🇦
you should have discussed the role of corporations in fascism.
And the unions that strong arm said corporations into submission. It truly baffles me how much people just say “fascism is authoritarianism” or “fascism is collectivism” which would then classify nearly every communist state as fascist.
Thanks for pointing that out.
It’s a misnomer by leftists that there is a correlation between fascism and capitalism. The same thing happens with the right wing when they say socialism is correlated with nazism
@@chrisgavin2794not really. A socialist tends to believe that, as long as a capitalist class exists with a large scope, a system is capitalist. And corporatism counts under that. A socialist would be wrong if they claimed that corporatism is laissez-faire capitalism.
My thoughts about fascism is, that it`s a bad form of governance.🙄
Absolutely. It was disastrous. It didn't last long.
The discussion about the right or left, obscures a more essential point, being that it is authoritarian, suppressing civil rights, militaristic and using brute forces to maintain itself etc. Your description of what fascism is, is quite clear and undisputed - except for the extreme right part. Then it becomes disputable, as we know that certain fascist regimes and contemporary fascist movements do collaborate quite intensively with extreme-left forces. the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact is just one of the examples. And indeed, when looking around the world, which regimes show most of the characteristics of fascism, we end up with nearly all current communist regimes. So, why not concentrate on the clear characteristics of fascism and avoid getting muddled with a claim that you can not back up with sufficient undisputed facts? The enemy for me is authoritarianism and that requires all possible energy to fight. And to what extent a given form of authoritarianism can quality as left or right, I don't care at all.
I think you really nailed it! Thanks for sharing your valuable input on this. I'm surprised that more people didn't take your approach to the video, and I wish more could see it this way.
To me the enemy is the chaos of libertarianism. If the path towards salvation is mass murder so be it. You cant make peace with everyone.
It juuuuust so happens that these tactics are far more frequently adopted by the far right in such an amount that trying to say fascism is "nOt OnLy FaR rIgHt" is an immediate dog whistle to suggest you're an apologist for the white nationalist leaning fascism.
Fascism is inherently far right as it creates rigid hierarchy anyone who says otherwise does not understand basic political theory.
Rudi Nailed it ! I gave a thumbs down for the exact reason the author explained that Fascists are far Right when they are indeed Extreme left, Look at Antifa is a classic example, Ultra Far Left and controlled and paid , the left could say about the KKK but the KKK has a history and did not just POP out of NO where like Antifa and dont forget they were democrats. I see comments here and wow let's compare, shall we? MORE GOVERMENT CONTROL (LEFT) MORE SOCIAL PROGRAMS (LEFT) MORE TAXES ( LEFT) Less GOVERMENT (Right) Less Taxes ( Right ) The Left is leading up to authoritarianism and its hiding in clear sight I will be waiting to have some leftists prove this isn't the direction and Yes you might hate Trump but he got the JOB Done and No wars
While I undertand you were just providing examples, Francisco Franco was not fascist. During his dictatorship, he balanced power between four main groups in order to stay on top. One of those was the 'falange', which was fascist and actually left-wing by many standards (national sindicates, state-controlled economy, etc...). He gave the falange power for the first few years of the dictatorship, but with time he took it away as it became clear their movement had lost strength after WWII. One consequence of this was that in the 1950s, thanks to a government of technocrats, Spain slowly became an open market economy and had an economic boom. Of the 40 years that Franco's dictatorship lasted, less than half were 'fascist'. (Note I am not defending the dictatorship in anyway, just providing facts). Another interesting fact is that the party in Spain that nowadays calls themselves 'anti-fascists' and tries to look as dissimilar from the dictatorship as possible, has in reality the closests ideals to fascism. Guess that what this is to say is: Never trust labels, they will almost always be misleading
@@Popular-Front Interesting. I guess left and right are just labels after all, and they can't really let you grasp the full picture. When talking about fascism I usually refer to the Verona manifesto, since it's the original version of fascism, but it is true that in places like Spain it was a bit different. Thanks for taking the time to write that insightful comment, it's definitely an interesting area of history and politics and worth examining.
Spanish falangism was interesting, the 2 main ideologists José Antonio Primo de Rivera and Ramiro Ledesma Ramos had very different ideas. José Antonio wanting an agrarian syndicalist Spain, where as Ramiro Ledesma looked to emulate Stalin with mass industrialisation and central planning
The problem with the comments you made, and I am in no way saying you are wrong, is that by dividing these groups up into smaller groups with different names you are actually helping to spread confusion.
Most people today don't even know how to define basic terms like communism or distinguish it from socialism or fascism. But that doesn't seem to stop them from using these names when they are sent off to argue with anyone who will listen. If you haven't noticed there is a war of words and ideas going around. "Scholarly" articles of how we "don't live in a democracy we live in a republic" or "the Nazis were socialist, it says it in the official party name" have become rally cries for "left is bad and right is good".
I know that is not what you are saying, but remember to keep this in mind when you are commenting or answering questions. All they really want to hear is "far right is not fascist, because fascist is bad".
@@lperea21 So you're saying that I should adapt my intellectually motivated comment for ignorants? I see what you're trying to say, but one cannot change the truth for fear of ideological interpretations. And neither left nor right are the best.
@@el_saltamontes lol, kind of. Your last sentence is key.... Making simple statements like that I think will help. Right now just saying what something is not, is enough to throw someone off. For example one argument going around en masse is "America is not a democracy, it's a constitutional republic". You would be tempted to say that it is not a "true democracy," and be correct. The problem, though is that the argument has a sinister hidden agenda. They are trying to convince people that the majority is not supposed to rule, and that the minority rule was intentional. And that is not what the constitution was about.
So adding that it's a democratic republic fixed the problem.
You kind of breezed over ANTIFA giving people the impression that they were against fascism, that's why you don't listen to their words you watch what they do because again there's that Motto, "accuse the other side of that which you are guilty." Joseph Goebbels
"When Fascism comes to America, it will come under the guise of/be called anti-Fascism!"
- Attributed to Huey Long 1930’s a populist politician from the state of Louisiana.
The term fascism is saturated with these type of comments, antfia is militaristic communism and anarchist- communism which focuses on a new society with these ideas
Antifa is a stance, not an organized movement. It pops up where-ever far-right groups gain influence or notoriety. Also, there's nothing fascistic about it. They don't advocate for a dictatorial state, strong natural hierarchies, military power, racial supremacy etc. In very rare cases they use violence (against far-right protesters, whose ideology's inherent violence is a lot more dangerous), but that does not make them fascistic.
No kidding. Antifa has no centralized figurehead calling the shots but it uses fascist tactics of violence and intimidation to attempt to achieve its hardline political stance of the lessening of the individual in favour of the collective. Opposition is not tolerated.
@@rusfherzts4513 Banderism is cringe and indecisive pseudo-fascism. Azov and Right Sector are NATO puppets.
@@rusfherzts4513 "New" would mean that it wasn't there before, but what these people will ultimately reap is millions of dead people, which we've seen in every communist nation that has ever existed. Communism doesn't work outside of small communities, because no large population will always function as one entity. Regional difference make every egaletarian effort invalid and will only cause the leading party/the leader to deal with those that decide to not be a part of the ideology anymore in the quickest way as to not let them cause an uproar amongst the others. Whatever communism touches will ultimately implode on itself, leaving chaos behind. Communism *has to* merge with fascism to function. No way around it.
Why did America and some other countries like France insist on using Fascist symbolism? You see it on their monetary systems, courts, parliaments, capitol... etc?
I'm a little confused here.. if communism is authoritarian and far left. How can fascism be authoritarian and far right, especially when the far right believes in limited government? Wouldn't anarchy, no government, be technically far right?
The idea of left and right makes it seem linear. But if you add a second dimension (democracy vs authoritarianism) you end up with four groups. Democratic Left, Democratic Right, Authoritarian Left (aka Communism) and Authoritarian Right (Fascism)
@@lperea21 The other dimensions that you're talking about are just branch offs. And if we're talking about Democratic right/ left, none of that really matters because that's a base of authoritarianism. Making it still left wing
Classical and progressive liberals use these terms, fascists themselves viewed it as a syncretic third position against liberal capitalist democracy and Marxist international materialism that was neither left nor right
The far right does not believe in liberty lmao. Thats centrism. Or liberalism, a branch of leftism. The state is not always left wing you know
Because fascism is NOT a right wing movement, a prime example of right wing Ideology would be liberal democracy.
Communism is a Left wing movement because leftists want things like: Authority, Equality, Collectivism and Reform.
Capitalism is a Right wing movement because rightists want things like: Liberty, Inequality, Self Reliability, and Tradition.
Fascism is a Third positionist movement which is brought up by fascists to say that they are not right or left, which is true.
Third positionists combine the left and right but are not centrists because of strictly sided goals. Third positionists, like the Left, want Authority and Collectivism, but like the Right, they want Inequality and Tradition. Examples of Third positionist Ideologies include: Nationalism, Fascism, Nazism, Eco-Fascism, Ultra-Nationalism, Militarist Statism, National Syndicalism, and National Bolshevism.
Thank you this is probably one of the very few succinct definitions of this on the platform.
You’re welcome! Glad you found it helpful and succinct. That’s what most of the videos on the channel are intended to be.
No, the content is not accurate as it confuses fascism with naziism. These are two distinct ideologies, and the video is intellectually lazy in combining the two together.
Thank you buddy

Great job 👏
There is a very clear explanation of fascism written by a person who lived during the time of it's rise. That is, "Fascism: What it is, and how to fight it" a pamphlet with a variety of articles written by Leon Trotsky in the 1930's. In his writings he shows how fascism is different than military dictatorship, and documents the errors of the Stalinists in fighting fascism. The pamphlet is freely available on the internet with a search of that title. However correct, or incorrect, the above video is, the analysis by Trotsky, made at the time of the rise of the fascists is essential reading for those who want to know how fascism happened.
While it provides interesting reading, people should take it with a grain of salt, considering the Marxists were ideological enemies of Fascists. So you will most certainly get a biased story from Trotsky.
Good video however mentioning class collaborationism would have made it better
Thanks for the feedback. Always accepted. :)
Great video you should do a video on the difference between libertarianism and classical liberalism

In the past, the political spectrum has been drawn in a line. Reading from left to right as one normally does.
1- dictatorship government
2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9. -------->
And number 10- Anarchy,
1 is total government control, the
Last one, 10,is completely lacking any forms of government, every other type of government lays between the two numbers
So, democrats are 5,and Republicans are 6.
Left and right of the center ( 5.5)
Left wanting more government control, and right wanting less.. so. Saying that facisim is right wing, is completely false information. Even though they now are attempting to redraw the definition by using a square format, which is bull biscuits. Left is still one step at dictatorship. Right is still one step towards Anarchy.

Trump is more of a narcissist who echoes some fascist ideas: Ultra-nationalism, the narrative of a national rebirth of a mythologized glorious past (MAGA), protectionism, demonizing certain minorities, conspiracy theories that echo those of Nazi-Germany. He also kicked off the christo-fascist tendencies of in the Republican party that we see happening now.

For this reason I am far from accepting (Alfred) Rosenberg's myth."

That's not how fascism is defined if you read the literature of mussolini or gentile, this is a biased interpretation, plus the tone of this guys voice I'd guess he was a hardcore liberal.
"plus the tone of this guys voice I'd guess he was a hardcore liberal."

If it's very clear which side of the political spectrum somebody is on, then you have to take everything they say with a bag of salt. I'd give anything to find someone truly objective to explain all kinds of ideologies.

He wanted to pull out of the alliance with Hitler at that time.i don't know what Hitler said to him,but he stayed in.he might not have lived if he had left,and Italy would have been totally taken over by the Nazis.
Фашизам и нацизам нису исто!
great explanation thank you so much.
Fascism is not right wing, but it can be right or left wing but it is essentially when government works in collusion with private businesses and they are arm in arm with one another. The party in power, whether they are right wing or left wing or arm in arm with big businesses that are rich and the press and modern day, cable, news, media social media, and they are joined at the hip and arm and arm to censor the public, and drowned out any dissent
For a more in-depth look at what fascism constitutes, Umberto Eco's 14 Points is a great checklist for whether something is or isn't fascist.
Without looking at Mr. Eco’s 14 points I have observed that what most modern day left us clamor for amounts to Fascism for the most part. And by that I mean an economy that is pluralistic includes some of the trappings of a free market however most items are steered and driven by a central planning authority. And the scales can easily be tipped in favor of one favorite group or even politically loyal individuals. In addition any criticism of the central planned eco can be deflected by blaming it on the "Evil oil Co.'s" etc. etc. Another hallmark of fascism would be the suppression of political opposition. Again you can see this quite readily in the whole “woke" movement. However because of the bad history associated with fascism most modern day leftists are very quick to try and distance themselves from that word..

There's a false paradigm used to describe political systems which places Marxist Socialism and fascist Socialism at opposite ends of the political spectrum. This is inaccurate at best. A more accurate picture would place total government control at one end and anarchy at the other end of the political spectrum.
The woke movement is the latest manifestation of the politically correctness movement, which is merely the suppression of disfavored ideas. How one views the treatment of disfavorited speech gives insight into whether one tends towards libertarianism or authoritarianism. The libertarian believes the remedy for "Bad" speech is more speech. The authoritarian prefer censorship.
@@DFHartman Your assessment relies on the assumption that all speech is equally valuable and righteous. Bigotry and hatred have no place in a modern liberal society, and Marxist analysis relies inherently on avoiding fascistic outcomes.
Odds are you only read the Communist Manifesto, which was really only Marx's little mission statement to rile up European laborers to rebel.
His actual literature was more about discussing the nature of freedom and how even if there's a degree of it within an institution, there's still ways to oppress people through their biological needs. Yes, you technically have a choice to get a job, and yes, you technically can quit it for a better one, but in order for that to be truly fair, you need to be able to have equal bargaining power with the person you're petitioning for a paycheck. Which is impossible unless you're part of a union, since a company will always be able to leverage more unless you're, say, a celebrity.
Fascism, on the other hand, extends from conservative philosophy, namely in the need for strict hierarchies. Conservatism as it existed before the 20th century was largely a philosophical concept designed to justify the hoarding of wealth and power. But you're so hellbent on demonizing the government exclusively that you're failing to see private enterprise is just as easily capable of holding that power. And fascist movements are fully aware of this. That's why companies were so eager to do business with the Nazis.
As for "woke..." I'm sorry you hate seeing non-whites and non-men in leading roles sometimes, I'm sure it's very hard for you, lmao
@@TheBrickMasterB Bajebus.. The modern left shows more commonalities with fascism than conservatism does.
Nazism can't be defined as fascism, given that Gleichshaltung (in regards to the economy and structure of society) and biological racism have never been a policy of any fascist movement. Plus, the national socialists believed in the shrinking markets idea (purely the basis of socialism) and that a total revolution must be launched.
Of course Nazism isn't a form of fascism, but rather fascism was used as a tool to spread the ideology of Nazism.
Easy when 2 or more parties can't agree to solve a problem at hand fascist recognizes the problem, tries something to solve it without debate and wasting time and if it doesn’t work, tries something else.
you are so wrong. the philosopher of fascism was Geovanni Gentile. his mentor was Karl Marx. he was far left. look it up befor you do a video. he was a socialist.
Something important about fascism that people always seem to forget is that it's an ideology that can used by the left and right. The basic definition of fascism is that it's an ideology that makes people always prioritize the group and not the individual, along with eternal loyalty to the state. Actually now that I think of it, I don't know if fascism actually requires nationalism to work.
You're forgetting that it's based in socialism. It's firmly a leftwing ideology and not compatible with the right.

In America the right wing is comprised of people who have been steeped in John Locke individualism. It’s important to understand the distinction between the right wing of the individual handed down from the British enlightenment as opposed to the right wing of Hegel and Kant. Hegel was a statist and collectivist that influenced Marx as well as Giovani Gentile who was the father of fascism. Fascism was a statist collectivist movement that exalted the state above the indivual. So that is more like something one in America might see as being left wing. It’s only a right wing phenomenon when juxtapossed to Marx but they are both left wing collectivism. Remember America is Locke and the British enlightenment and has nothing in common with fascism. Hegelians were cultish and loved their philsophy and Germany was full of them. Germany actually rejected the label of fascism because they didn’t invent it. They behaved fascistically one can see but Nazi Germany was Hegelian National Socialism. Italy was fascist under Mussolini. Peace
Mussolini was a socialist journalist who embraced nationalism rather than internationalism or Marxist socialism, when he saw how compelling nationalism was to most people During WWI. But he was not a racist and indeed had a Jewish mistress, and only adopted racist policies to placate Hitler with whom he sought an alliance. But neither racism or antisemitism fully manifested itself in fascist Italy. Hitler coming after Mussolini, was a nationalist and a socialist, thus the name National Socialism or Nazi.. It did however, Incorporate, concepts of ethnic and or racial purity, as racism and antisemitism. Although the two regimes, may appear the same to you, they felt themselves to be distinctly different from one another and never used the word fascism and nazism synonymously. However they were allies in WW2. Although much of the means of production was seized and nationalized in the two regimes, in some cases private property was merely regulated in place. thus projecting an illusion of a free market.
@z1 Fascism absolutely can be racialist, it does not have to be racialist and not all fascists are. In fact, Italian racial laws received criticism by Italian fascist politicians.
I would hardly consider Germany at the time to be „fascist“.
Without looking at Mr. Eco’s 14 points I have observed that what most modern day left us clamor for amounts to Fascism for the most part. And by that I mean an economy that is pluralistic includes some of the trappings of a free market however most items are steered and driven by a central planning authority. And the scales can easily be tipped in favor of one favorite group or even politically loyal individuals. In addition any criticism of the central planned eco can be deflected by blaming it on the "Evil oil Co.'s" etc. etc. Another hallmark of fascism would be the suppression of political opposition. Again you can see this quite readily in the whole “woke" movement.

It is a frightening prospect, given its genocidal impulses, its tendency to punish critical thinking, and the attachment to messianic leaders.
The problem is that fascism is considered "right" and communism is considered "left", but both result in almost identical outcomes. Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were were almost the same person, with a slightly different mustache. If you switched them as babies, history would have turned out exactly the same.

_"Fascism originate as a far right movement"_
Wrong. Fascism was a totalitarian far-left, socialist 3rd position ideology based on National Syndicalism which they adapted from Georges Sorel. As created by Mussolini and Giovanni Gentile, it comes from a belief that the "Stateless and Classless society" Communism calls for after its dictatorship cannot achieve Socialism, and that only the State can properly organize a Socialist Society. Nothing to do with right wing of any kind.
_"Tell me how is that not the closest thing we have today to fascism? Attack physicaly or with law who ever does not agree with your beliefs, Thats called fascism"_
That is not Fascism. That is just run-of-the-mill authoritarianism.
"Fascism is a complex immutable political ideology but is typically defined as a far-right, authoritarian, ultra-nationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader centralized autocracy militarism forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and race and strong regimentation of society and the economy." ~~

You are wrong. Both fascism and Nazism came out of the left. Before Mussolini took control of Italy, he was a socialist/communist. His only disagreement with the communist was that their revolution was moving too slow. Mussolini was the editor of Italy’s largest communist newspaper.
Hitler didn’t call himself a fascist. He believed he was a socialist and by executive order, he collectivize Germany, more thoroughly than Stalin collectivize the USSR. Hitler hated and didn’t understand free market capitalism, the opposite of the way conservatives believe.
During that time there were no Limited government conservatives like today’s.

Michael Ledeen is possibly one of the best studied humans on fascism. Viewers should look at his analyses of fascism - and what is is, and more importantly today - what it isn't. Hitler and Mussolini were both fascists in ways, but Mussolini's fascism is more bonafide than what Hitler's take on it was, highlighting a noticible level of differences rather than fundamental similarities. Hitler is said to have modelled his politics on the Italian model of fascism - but therein lies huge differences.
I should add, you need not support Ledeen himself, but he is a well studied person who can succinctly differentiate alot of the factors aligning and driving apart the common assumption that both men mentioned were one in the same.

Very interesting! I surely do not understand enough what fascism is on the daily basis to really comment on it’s value. Not having lived beside Germany during the Second World War it is extremely difficult to assess if Mussolini was right in choosing fascism to control Italy at that period. Mussolini probably did not have that much choice given how Germany was run at the time. These were difficult times and sometime your survival will justify behaviour totally unacceptable to people like me who never lived through a war. I wonder if I would have choose Fascism or Nazism if I lived just on the border of those two countries in 1942. What were the benefits of either regime to people opting to one of them? I do not throw stones to any body before trying to understand.

The problem is ANTIFA participates in Fascists tactics of violence and silencing of opposition as explained at around 3:28 yet they are heralded as an anti-fascist movement. The term nationalism is a term that wasn't even expressed as it relates to fascism in general and has only been a topic of discussion in opposition to things like patriotism and heroism since the early 2000's. Fascism is rooted in the belief of "opposing the normal" and was sparked mainly in the art revolutions of the time periods of the late 1800's through the early 1900's as with many movements its ideology merged with politics. One other aspect is far left and far right which are terms that described politics of today late 1900's to present, but, where not present in the early 1900's. In fact, many of the views of anyone considered far right has no views which support those fascists which in reality is another form of socialism with the master race component. I like how the Narrator through in a few extra components but did not distinguish them properly. Deportation comes to mind as the Socialist, Communist, Fascists, aspect is to boot out those that are not like minded. This shouldn't be confused with deportation of illegal migrants and those who do not respect the laws of the countries they are invading as the prospects of legal migration are preferred. In part, it was about as informative as it could be up until 2:02, then almost everything else was a contradiction.
Hmmm.... A very problematic definition I'm afraid to label fascism as right wing.
Firstly militarism is a trait of Far-left politics, not the right. (Look at militant Africa of the 1970s) "Forceable suppression of the individual, for the good of the populace" is extremely communistic in its approach as is Nationalism. Just have a look at the artwork of 'glorious & patriotic' Communist Russia. I really cant see how these attributes are assignable to right wing politics which is defined as promotion of private enterprise (capitalism) and meritocracy (competition & democratic voting for regular leadership changes) & above all light Government.
You don't know nothing militarism is not Leftwing and neighter right wing
Was Roman empire Leftwing?
Many Empires were generally militistic history before Leftwing and Rightwing ever existed
Militarism is just the trait of anyone who wants to change the system with force or that self defence must be secured. Its the founding fathers on the revolution. Its gun owners threatening the feds to, "come and take it." Was it not Trump who praised countries for having military spending over 3%?
Collectivism is seen in socialism, but its also seen in conservatism. Did conservatives not fight gay marriage on these grounds? I've seen conservatives on the other side argue that conservatives should support gay marriage because it integrates gay people into society, which is an appeal to collectivism.

**This goes in depth and is decently long ** Looking at this from a non-bias political standpoint, the democratic party is definitely far more "fascist" than the republican party. The Democratic party funded and aided in seting up the "Klue Klux Klan" and tried to keep segregation laws in affect to split the nation into groups, despite it being against the US constitution. They also funded the riots (providing potential weapons) that happened during the beginning of the "BLM" movements, provoking violence despite "BLM" supposedly proposing a non violent protest. This lead to most of the "fascist" finger pointing these last couple years, after Donald J. Trump stated the Democratic parties simularities in "fascist veiws" with Mussolini and Hitler. Where the republican party is focused on keeping the nation as a whole "for the people by the people" (hence the nickname "conservatives" when speaking in general although "conservative" isnt just Republicans but some indigiounous political groups also) The Republican party does have VERY few things in common with the idea of "fascism" such as, Military power (over other countries not the people.
