Gaslight 101: FASCISM
If 1 party rule is Fascist, then why is it called 'Far Right'? Illinois, New York, and California are '1 party rule. Look at THAT mess - Example: Abortion On Demand up to the day of birth paid for by taxpayers.
Wiki Version:
"Fascism is a far-right form of government in which most of the country's power is held by one ruler or a small group, under a single party. Fascist governments are usually totalitarian and authoritarian one-party states."
The Webster Version sounds like the Harris/Biden Administration:
"1 often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition."
WHAT IS FASCISM?
Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian political ideology that promotes extreme nationalism, often at the expense of individual rights, democracy, and international cooperation. Fascist movements emphasize centralized power, often led by a single leader or dictatorial regime, and typically involve strict social and economic control, militarism, and suppression of opposition. Some defining characteristics of fascism include:
Authoritarianism: Fascist regimes are highly authoritarian, with centralized control in the hands of a powerful leader or ruling elite, and they often suspend democratic institutions.
Nationalism: Fascism promotes a fierce, often xenophobic form of nationalism, portraying the nation as superior to others and rejecting foreign influence or diversity.
Anti-communism and anti-liberalism: Fascists view both communism and liberal democracy as threats, often vilifying and suppressing these ideologies in favor of a controlled, hierarchical society.
Militarism and Violence: Fascist states glorify military strength and war, believing conflict and discipline forge unity and strength. Violence is seen as a legitimate means of achieving political goals.
Control of Society and Economy: Fascist regimes often impose strict control over economic activities, aiming to align businesses and workers with state goals. However, unlike communism, they do not typically seek to abolish private property.
Historically, fascism became prominent in Europe in the early 20th century, notably with Benito Mussolini's Italy and Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany. While it largely disappeared after World War II, elements of fascist ideology sometimes resurface in nationalist or authoritarian movements today.
