OK. Fascism is the same good old Marxist socialism with altered marketing, i.e. instead of the no-longer-relevant calling for the proletariat to unite against the evil bourgeoisie, Gentile insisted that the State (really meaning the government) should "care for" the displaced people as parents care for children, with full authority to punish as necessary to correct the bahavior of problem children, and to project authoritarian rule as the manifestation of love for one's family.

Fascism arose in Europe after World War I when many people yearned for national unity and strong leadership. In Italy, Benito Mussolini used his charisma to establish a powerful fascist state.

Benito Mussolini coined the term “fascism” in 1919 to describe his political movement. He adopted the ancient Roman fasces as his symbol. This was a bundle of rods tied around an ax, which represented the power of Rome.

Mussolini established the first fascist regime, followed soon after by others, including Nazi Germany. Fascism, however, differed somewhat from one nation to another. Thus, scholars often disagree on a precise definition of fascism. Even so, they tend to agree on its common characteristics such as:

  • Absolute Power of the State: Fascist regimes have a strong centralized state, or national government. The fascist state seeks total control over all major parts of society. Individuals must give up their private needs and rights to serve the needs of the whole society as represented by the state.

You're being played. The uniparty is taking another step towards a police state. All the JPP republicans are salivating at the thought of wiping their ass with what's left of our constitution.
 
Can this guy really be that dumb? Threat to democracy? The left is attempting to prevent democracy, not Trump. The people used democracy to put our laws in place, then used democracy to elect Trump and one huge reason they did was because they demand that the laws they put into place are enforced, that is democracy, and those attempting to prevent it are the ones against democracy.

Which is precisely why Gentile insisted that the marketing be changed, i.e. socialism wasn't selling, but if the marketing were to get a makeover and begin resonating with the people, it would sell quickly. Socialism, marketed under the "fascism" brand, then took hold where the old socialism appealed to very, very few.

Giovanni Gentile coined the term. Mussolini readily adopted it as the ideology of his political movement.

Exactly.

Just as one family differs from the next.

Nobody (except uneducated morons) disagrees on Gentile's publication as the definitive authority on fascism.

Stop. It doesn't matter on what who agrees. THE DOCTRINE OF FASCISM by Giovanni Gentile is the authority. Anyone who disagrees with anything in this document is in error to exactly that extent.
