Like lockdowns.and mandatory big pharma injections?

Bertrand russell is a first class pole smoker

Are those requirements still in place? Of course not, idiot. Transient events. Unlike true fascism, where limitations on liberties are not.

true fascism is the ongoing criminality of the military industrial complex, the prison industrial complex, the big food/medicine industrial complex etc.

you're soaking in it, cowardly yes man.

Elements of fascism:

Elements of totalitarianism

1- Leader personality- charismatic, becomes a cult of the leader.
2- The party is transformed into one that manifests the cult in the will of the leader. The party becomes an instrument of the leader.
3- Propaganda or post-truth. The propaganda often competes with science.
4- Totalitarianism is about “lawful lawlessness” . The use of the law to eliminate the opposition.
5- Totalitarian regimes build camps. Labor camps, detention camps.
6 - These forms of government survive on war, even economic.

Sorry, dumbfuck. Your examples fail. They are examples of capitalism gone awry.

TOTALITARIANISM is not fascism, master debater.

and totalaitrianism doesn't necessarily need a charismatic leader.

this is a boutique definition designed by those with trump derangement syndrome.

put simply its just the union of corporation and government in a little man smashing syndicate.

most people prefer to call it "private public partnership" or "an independent fed".

Fascism, as we saw it 100 years ago and as we see it approaching now, IS totalitarianism.

no.

they're different words for a reason.

 

[domer76]

Difference without a distinction.

The elements I posted were those of Hannah Arendt. And they are spot on describing Trump and his followers.

20 SIGNS OF A FASCIST LEADER

1. Cult of Tradition / Glorious Past
Mythologizing a “golden age” that must be restored.
2. Rejection of Modernism / Liberalism
Framing pluralism, feminism, and democracy as decay or weakness.
3. Action for Action’s Sake
Valuing impulsive, dramatic gestures over deliberation or reason.
4. Disagreement = Treason
Branding dissenters as enemies of the nation.
5. Fear of Difference
Racism, xenophobia, homophobia — scapegoating outsiders.
6. Appeal to a Frustrated Middle Class
Rallying downwardly mobile groups with nationalist anger.
7. Obsession with Conspiracy
Belief in shadowy plots undermining the nation.
8. Enemy as Both Weak and Strong
Opponents are portrayed as pathetic and existentially dangerous.
9. Pacifism = Treason
Denouncing peace as cowardice; glorifying war and military action.
10. Contempt for the Weak
Mocking or discarding the vulnerable and marginalized.
11. Cult of Heroism / Death
Turning violence, sacrifice, and martyrdom into sacred ideals.
12. Machismo
Exalting strength, virility, and domination (often misogynistic).
13. Selective Populism
Claiming only one leader speaks for “the people.”
14. Newspeak
Simplified slogans and repetitive catchphrases that shut down thought.
15. Disdain for Human Rights
Treating individual rights as expendable for the “greater good.”
16. Control of Media / Propaganda
Flooding the public sphere with lies, censorship, or state-aligned outlets.
17. Rigged Elections / Anti-Democracy
Undermining or abolishing free, fair elections to stay in power.
18. Fusion of Religion and Nationalism
Presenting the nation’s destiny as divinely ordained.
19. Glorification of Violence
Violence framed as cleansing, purifying, or patriotic.
20. Permanent State of Crisis
Maintaining constant fear: only the leader can avert catastrophe.
