Fascism

Fascism is a totalitarian,  economically third-positionist, (usually)  culturally right and  ultranationalist ideology. Fascism was based on the teachings of Giovanni Gentile and  Benito Mussolini, originally outlined in the Doctrine of Fascism.

Italian Fascism prioritizes a corporatist economy based on  National Syndicalism, a protest against  marxist and  liberal ideas as degenerate political doctrines, the defense of national interests with the unification of the nation within one state ( Italian irredentism),  imperialism and expansionism similar to the foreign policy of ancient Rome, etc. Fascism otherwise adheres to a strict regulation of society as a whole, as well as a hierarchical structure of society, thereby suppressing  civil society.

The name "fascism" comes from the Etruscan symbol by the name of "fasces", which is a bound bundle of wooden rods, sometimes including an axe with its blade emerging. This iconography meant to symbolize the common fascistic belief pervading their doctrine, that, in their belief, the citizenry of the nation, as vermin-like and unworthy as they are, are weak divided, but strong united under the banner, whether that banner be of state, nation, army, or really anything of the like, much like the tight-bound sticks of a fasces".

Italian Fascism is the original fascist ideology, born from the writings and practices of Giovanni Gentile and Benito Mussolini. We see it's historical practice by Benito Mussolini's parties: the National Fascist Party (PNF), which ruled the Kingdom of Italy from 1922 until 1943, and the Republican Fascist Party that lorded over the Italian Social Republic from 1943 to 1945. Italian Fascism is also seen with-in the post-war Italian Social Movement.

[[File:Sansepolcrismo.png]] Sansepolcrismo [[File:Guildsoc.png]]
Sansepolcrismo is a term which refers to the movement that came before fascism led by Benito Mussolini. The movement originated on March 23 1919 at Piazza San Sepolcro in Milan. The ideological basis was a semi-socialist one, the movement presented itself as progressive in the beginning with a very radical program.

The program declares the movement as nationalist, anti-imperialist and syndicalist promoting the acceptance of the demands of the working class.

It is remarkable that initially the Fasci, according to Sansepolcro's program, were not properly  anti-democratic, indeed declaring as their fundamental principle democratic participation in "free elections".

In the Italian Social Republic some of the points of this program were brought up again even if they were never really applied.

[[File:NeoFash.png]] Neo-Fascism [[File:Neonazi ball.png]][[File:Fash21.png]]
Neo-Fascism originates from the aftermath of World War II and the defeat of the Axis Powers. Neo-Fascism tends to believe that it's own nation is superior to all others but is usually less associative with Totalitarianism but still holds the concepts of  Authoritarian Democracy.

Neo-Fascism is usually right to far-right politically, but still somewhat Corporatist economically. Neo-Fascism caries many ideals from Nazism  as it took concepts from the  Italian Social Republic (1944-1945).

The first major Neo-Fascist movement was the Italian Social Movement, which was dissolved in 1995. Some people associate Neo-Fascism with Francoism as the Fascist ideology continued to rule Spain up until 1975. A more well known variation of Neo-Fascism is Neo-Nazism which is the version of  National Socialism  that also began after World War II. Neo-Nazism tends to be more racist than generic Neo-Fascism is, but not as much as Nazism  is.

Neo-Fascism has gained recent popularity in Greece following the Great Recession and recent economic hardships in the country leading to the creation of the political party Golden Dawn. In the United States,  Neo-Nazism has seen a resurgence following the 2016 presidential election. The Neo-Nazi movement is the third version of the  Ku Klux Klan, which evolved into Neo-Fascism and  Neo-Nazism after 1950 despite initially being  Neo-Confederate. Neo-Fascism also has also spawned Alt-Right.

[[File:NeoFash.png]] Stefano Delle Chiaie
Stefano Delle Chiaie was an Italian neo-fascist terrorist. He was the founder of Avanguardia Nazionale, a member of Ordine Nuovo, and founder of Lega nazionalpopolare. Delle Chiaie started out by being involved in various political actions in Italy during the 1950s and 1960s, such as protesting against Eisenhower's visit to Italy or fighting against the Italian Communist Party, and infiltrating and breaking up left-wing demonstrations. Delle Chiaie was known for his close affiliation with various anti-communist dictators.

The Italian terrorist took part in former French army officer  Yves Guérin-Sérac's "Aginter Press", an anti-communist mercenary organization founded in  António de Oliveira Salazar's  Portugal in 1965. Delle Chiaie assisted former Italian navy commander Junio Valerio Borghese in the attempted 1970 coup d'atat Golpe Borghese against the Italian government. After the coup failed Delle Chiaie escaped to Francoist Spain and met with future members of the GAL paramilitary group. Delle Chiaie actively participated in Operation Condor on behalf of US-backed military dictatorships in Latin America and worked for both Augusto Pinochet's political police, the DINA,  the Argentine Anticommunist Alliance (Triple A) and  Hugo Banzer's dictatorship in  Bolivia. He also took part in the 'Cocaine Coup' of 1980 that brought Bolivian military dictator Luis García Meza to power.

During a 1997 hearing in Italy before the Commission on terrorism headed by senator Giovanni Pellegrino, Delle Chiaie spoke about a "black fascist International" and his hopes of creating the conditions of an "international revolution" and admitted to having taken part in the pan-nationalist New European Order (NOE) organization.

Stefano Delle Chiaie died on 10 September 2019, in Rome, Italy.

[[File:Red Fascism.png]] Red Fascism [[File:Stalin.png]]
Main article:  Stalinism, National Bolshevism and  Strasserism

Red Fascism is a pejorative term for communist regimes, used especially in the cold war, even though it had been before. The term's first appearance was coined by Italian archist essayist Luigi Fabbri, in which he claimed that the Bolsheviks would be red fascists and would use fascist methods against their opponents. The Marxists Franz Borkenau and Otto Rühle have also used this term, so much so that Otto Rühle stated that "the struggle against fascism must begin with the struggle against Bolshevism".

Subsequently, the term was further intensified against the Stalin government, especially for its totalitarianism, personality cult, imperialism, forced labor camps, and repression and genocides of some ethnic minorities. The accusations intensified after the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, in which the Times claimed that "Hitlerism is brown communism, Stalinism is red fascism" and Mussolini praised Stalin at the time of the pact. Kurt Schumacher, a survivor of Nazi concentration camps, claimed that pro-communists were "red-painted Nazis".

This term was used a lot in the cold war, especially in various magazines and even with some socialists using this term, such as Norman Thomas. J. Edgar Hoover, former director of the FBI, has already made speeches that cited the term red fascism. Many anti-communists have already used it as a derogatory term against the USSR.

Even though it is a derogatory term, many Nazbols espouse both fascist and communist ideals, the most notable being Sven Olov Lindholm,  Otto Strasser,  Nicola Bombacci and others.

Currently, the term is still used in a derogatory way used predominantly by rightists (non-fascists) and non-communist leftists.

[[File:Cball-LiberalFascism.png]] Liberal Fascism [[File:Liberal Fascism.png]]
The term 'Liberal Fascism' was coined 2008 by Jonah Goldberg who explained that Fascism and Social Liberalism had the same root. It only gained attention on the PCB Wiki after MapOfFish LARPed as a Liberal Fascist and explained it as an ideology where  Liberalism and  Progressivism are enforced through  Totalitarianism. Liberal Fascism is often mistaken with National Liberalism.

[[File:SocFash.png]] Social Fascism
The term "social fascism" is used by Stalinists to describe  Social Democracy, to make them look bad by making an analogy with a fascist 3rd position and social demoracy's "reformed capitalism". Welfare Chauvinism can be considered a more literal interpretation of the term.

[[File:Ultranat.png]] Ultranationalism
Ultranationalism is one of the tenets Fascist elements tend to agree on. They emphasize the importance of extreme devotion to one's own nation, state, or otherwise, without care to the individual. As such, Fascism could be easily argued to be a rather anti-individualist ideology, in fact extremely so, at least in vein of the greater society.

[[File:Anticommunism2.png]] Economic Third Positionism [[File:Anticap.png]]
Fascism, especially when taken through the lens of the more traditional sort, tend to despise both traditional markets &  Communism seeing both of them as degenerate, failures and denigrations to humanity. These corrupted ideal leads them to conclude that the only sound economic system is Corporatism seeing as it as the only non-degenerate with no failures. Mind you, some more modern Fascistic elements have begun to lean toward Marxist or  Capitalist (Sometimes mixes of  both ), however, generally Fascism is Corporatist economically.

[[File:TradPrgess.png]] Social and Cultural Stance
Fascism can't be described as fully reactionary or revolutionary but rather a synthesis of Traditionalism and  Futurism's radical modernism. It calls for an alternative interpretation of modernism, different from the Liberal one, with a bigger focus on technology, speed and violence. Fascism's views could also be described as a Pragmatic combination of tradition and progress where it takes the "best parts" from both of them to  benefit the state and  rejuvenate the nation.

However, in the modern-day many neo-fascist movements want to be seen as culturally reactionary to counter  western progressivism, which they believe is a form of  "Cultural Marxism". This is also common within Alt-Right spaces. Although, this is usually only a façade and few fascist movements are actually reactionary in policy.

[[File:Imp.png]] Imperialism
It is common, though it is not a rule, that Fascist ideals and nations tend to be imperialist in nature. For examples of this, we can look back the the Second World War, with the Fascist Italy taking over Ethiopia and Albania, and the Nazi Germany taking over most of Europe. These goals were brought on either by a concept of irredentism, commonly defined as reclaiming lost land to reach your nation's greatest extent, or expansionism, which is the desire to gain more land. Sometimes both can be used as a justification, like in Germany, where the idea of Lebensraum ran rampant.

[[File:Totalitarian.png]] Totalitarianism
One of the main features of fascism is totalitarianism. Fascism favors having a totalitarian dictator that has complete control over the country, subjecting all people who oppose the dictator to prison time or execution. In fact the word totalitarianism actually came from fascism and original fascist philosophers as well as fascist dictators were unironic supporters of totalitarianism. Fascism believes the state is everything and there must be total unity of the state and must purge all who even destroy that unity.

[[File:Mil.png]] Militarism
Fascist states like to build a large military, for national pride, 'honor', and a show of strength. They usually use the army to pursuit expansionist or Irredentist goals as spurred by  Imperialism.

Nazi.png[[File:Racenat.png]] Views on Race & Ethnicity [[File:Ethnonat.png]]
Many forms of Fascism, such as National Socialism, are heavily based around race and/or ethnicity, however, Classical or Italian Fascism (the original form of Fascism based solely on the ideas of Benito Mussolini) is not primarily focused on race or ethnicity, and instead is based more so around Cultural Nationalism and the ties that individuals have to the nation state.

However, post-1938, Fascist Italy accepted racist theories and began to institute anti-Semitic and anti-black racial legislations. This can be attributed to the influence of the alliance with Nazi Germany on Fascist Italy. Just ignore the fact that western countries also had similar legislation in place.

[[File:Homophobia.png]] Views on LGBT
More Classical variants of Fascism have very similar views on gays & most of LGBT+ Community to that of Nazism, meaning that they often hold rather critical views of such people publicly as a way to attack progressive opponents, while allowing such relations secretly to loyalists.

Some Neo-fascists, such as  CasaPound Italia, have embraced a pro-LGBT stance however. The combination of fascist ideas with the acceptance of homosexuality, or LGBT people more broadly, is called Homofascism.

Criticism
Fascism is often seen as contradictory by both leftists and rightists because of its opposition to both Liberalism &  Marxism-Leninism, so most leftists claim that  fascism is a  capitalist ideology, whereas many rightists claim that  fascism is a leftist ideology, however, neither of these are correct.
