    Fascism is
    Totalitarianism, Militarization, Ultra Nationalism, AntiSemitism, anti Democracy, anti Capitalism, anti Communist, anti Liberalism.

    But, all those pre date Fascism in non Fascist entities.

    What's particularly unique of Fascism is it's merger of Corporations & State through Councils, and Cartels.

    Okay then. Define 'fascism'. Be prepared to give your reasoning behind your definition.

    the joining together of state and corporate interests in a monolithic power structure.

    generally it keeps profits rolling in and corrupt politicians in power.

    sometimes it involves manipulating markets. your definition is oversimple.

    communism is the same but with less transparency and a state seal plastered everywhere instead of corporate logos.

    Which is government manipulation of markets.

    Fascism is not a form of government. It is, however, a form of socialism. It is theft of wealth. It can only be implemented by oligarchies and dictatorships. It is on the road to communism. This is where you see the totalitarianism and the militarization. It is the thugs stealing the wealth. It may or may not (but usually is) accompanied by racism and bigotry, since that is an aspect of oligarchies and dictatorships.

    The word 'fascism' was coined by Mussolini. It's practice, however, extends far back in time, even to Plato. The word 'fascism' itself comes from the Italian word for 'fascio', meaning a bundle. It refers to the bundling of policies controlling private businesses. As I said, this practice extends far back before Mussolini.

    Karl Marx understood that this form of economy as a useful step on the road to communism (which is government ownership of markets). Because it is theft of wealth, and people generally don't like their wealth stolen, it takes a totalitarian government, such as an oligarchy or a dictatorship to implement it.

    The USA is generally directly opposite of Fascism.
    In the USA corporations run the government in Fascism government runs the corporations.

    I disagree on Fascism pre dating Mussolini.
    Councils which control Corporations were not around during Plato.
    Prove, otherwise?

    Honestly... Mussolini was fairly far from the worst evil.
    Not saying he was great.
    But, it is unfair to lump him in with Hitler, which the Left & even Right often do.

    He probably thinks the early USA was Fascist due to corporate charters.

    It must make you redneck non collegiate old morons miserable to think that things could be going well despite the bleating insistence to the contrary
    by your Russo-Fox US Government hating news network.

    While still terrible.

    Not exactly the same level.
