@@p00bix _"even though Fascist ideology itself isn't socialist."_ Wrong. It was. Fascism was an outgrowth of Sorellian Syndicalism, which itself was an outgrowth from Marxist socialism. The idea was that society would be consolidated (i.e., incorporated) into syndicates (in the Italian context, fascio/fasci) which would be regulated by and serve as organs for the state, or "embody" the state (corpus = body). The purpose wasn't the promotion of private interest, but the centralization and synchronization of society under the state, as an end unto itself. To quote Mussolini's infamous aphorism: "All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state." Ideologically, where the Fascists diverged from the Marxists was in their rejection of the narrative of class warfare, which they saw as utterly repudiated by the behavior of "the proletariat" during World War I, where rather than join together in a mutual overthrow of capitalism, the working class of each country stayed in lockstep with national loyalties and slaughtered their supposed foreign class brethren. Both the Fascists and Marxists despised Classical Liberalism, and saw it as having a perverse role in atomizing the individual from society. Mussolini's favored intellectual, Giovanni Gentile, freely acknowledged Fascism' kinship with Marxism through Sorellian Syndicalism.

It is conservative, not fascist

As Brazilian bishop, liberation theologian and anti-poverty activist Helder Camara (1909-1999) said: "There are three kinds of violence. The first, mother of all others, is institutional violence, which legalizes and perpetuates domination, oppression and exploitation, which crushes and tears apart millions of men in its silent and well-oiled cogs. The second is revolutionary violence, which arises out of the will to abolish the first. The third is repressive violence, which aims to snuff out the second while making itself the auxiliary and the accomplice of the first violence, which gives rise to all others. There is no worse hypocrisy than to only call the second kind "violence", while pretending to forget the first, which gives birth to it, and the third, which kills it." This is a perfect example of liberal propaganda meant to erase the first violence and condone the third to condemn the second. Presenting the left as the big bad scarecrow or even just the dumb useful idiots that made the fascists inevitable because they dared support action against a corrupt and failing oligarchy in the wake of a war started by opportunistic politicians that had caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of working-class men? I expected this from PragerU, but come on. Calling the left the instigators of the chaos in Germany or saying the Bolsheviks were the ones tearing Russia apart while leaving out their right-wing opponents smacks of anti-socialist bias. There was revolution everywhere in Europe, and admiration for the Russian Revolution wasn't a staple of the Italian left. Apart from Germany, there were strikes in all of Western Europe. The Italian oligarchy were the first ones to kill democracy to protect their status and their property.

Ironically enough, despite Mussolini being the technically first fascist nation in modern history, he was never as hateful as bigoted as Hitler's Germany was, him and Franco both. Sure, they locked up political opponents, but they never persecuted Jews or ethnic minorities. Mussolini's model of the "Roman Citizen" is more like the modern model of the "Global Citizen". where anybody he conquered now belonged to Italy, regardless of if they were French of Albanian or Greek or what have you. As for Franco, his version of fascism was way more focused on trying to bring Spain back up the economic and military might that it was back at the height of the Spanish Empire. I believe he had plans for invading Portugal and Andorra but outside of uniting Iberia and buying the rest of Morocco from the French he didn't have any grand plans on expanding the borders of Spain. He even saw how futile the cause of the Axis was and refused every attempt by Hitler to get him to join the war, even going as far as to back off the Spanish claims of Gibraltar and allowing the Allies to use the Balearic Islands for naval bases and training.

The king has basically doomed himself for his own comfort, he could've stopped him at almost any time he wished (the Fascists were never popular in Italy, unlike their German equivalent) but he choose inaction and thus lost his throne after the war (the Italian leadership was never great, the debacle which was the armistice showed that perfectly).

il duce-no boss. il duce=il doge

Mussolini wasn’t a guy with evil intentions. He just made the mistake of allying himself with Hitler. Mussolini had grave reservations concerning the rise of German military power in Central Europe. In fact, like the First World War, Mussolini had sought to work with Britain and France to stabilize Europe when it appeared that Germany might seek redress for real or fancied past grievances. The problem was that, in general, neither the British nor the French seemed prepared to act decisively in the face of increasing German provocation. They were allowed to proceed with little reaction from London or Paris. Furthermore, in a world controlled by the advanced industrial “plutocracies,” it seems clear that Mussolini did not expect the colonial powers to object to his war in Ethiopia. Retrograde Italy was sanctioned by the League of Nations. The advanced industrial powers controlled more than 43 Million square miles, or 84.4% of the Earth’s surface. Mussolini believed that as a late-comer to imperialism he would be allowed to secure Ethiopia, a region considered rich in industrial resources that Italy needed for their revolutionary program. Mussolini even issued 2 laws in 1935 and April 1936 to end slavery in Ethiopia. During its brief colonial presence, Mussolini freed 420,000 slaves. Italy as a proletarian nation, were hostages to those who would provide them coal; hostages to those who would provide them grain because they could not feed their population. Fascist Italy’s involvement in Spain-whatever its political motives-in part was inspired by a desire to reach the Atlantic without having to subject itself to British authority at Gibraltar. Italy was no longer to be a prisoner of the Mediterranean, traversing its own waters only at the sufferance of Great Britain. Clearly, Germany’s defense of Italian initiatives in Ethiopia, together with the tenuous alliance of National Socialist and Fascist forces in Spain, fostered an increasingly intimate diplomatic relationship between Hitler’s Germany and Fascist Italy. The “Pact of Steel” inextricably binding Italy to the fate of Hitler’s Germany. The Rome-Berlin alliance gave Italy increased confidence in the pursuit of its economic and security goals in the Mediterranean. What seems clear in retrospect is that the association of Fascist Italy with National Socialist Germany was a union that reflected a shared bitterness at their treatment by the shared industrial powers-Italy because it was economically backward and Germany because it had been denied its place among the world powers as a consequence of its defeat in the Great War. Mussolini invaded Albania-not only to ensure continued access to the sought after raw materials, but to exclude further British penetration into Italy’s defense perimeter. Albania was essential to the control of the Adriatic. With British forces based in Egypt, Malta, and Gibraltar, Rome sought to deny English forces access to the Balkan defense region. Throughout the Second World War, Germany and Italy fought what were essentially parallel wars, each pursuing what it conceived its own interests. What the two regimes shared was a common enemy-whose defeat was held to be essential to the furtherance of each respective end-goal. Unlike the implications carried in Hitler’s demand for Lebensraum, the Fascist call for “spazio vitale” (vital living space), did not imply the mass murder of resident populations. Hitler imagined vast territories cleansed and swept free of inhabitants-where Germanics could be permanently settled. Italian Fascists, on the other hand, sought territory and resources that were to be shared with the domestic populations-just as “imperialists” had done since time immemorial. Some people claim that Mussolini was racist… But Mussolini mocked racism, calling it “political foolishness.” He wasn’t an anti-Semite like Hitler and Stalin. Mussolini’s mistress was Jewish. 1-in-3 Jews occupied the Nationalist Party because they had been freed from the ghettos. In fact, 4 of the 7 founders of Italian Nationalism were Jews. Mussolini hardly massacred anyone. He killed remarkably few of his own citizens during his reign of a quarter century. Entire volumes have been written that attempt to make the connection between Fascism and racism. Fascism did not subscribe to biological racism. The official Manifesto published in July 1938, maintained that "to say that human races exist is not to say apriori that there exist superior or inferior races, but only to say that there exist different human races.” Mussolini-made increasingly aware of the National Socialists “final solution” to the Jewish question-communicated to Italian diplomatic, military, and police entities that not a single Jew anywhere that Italian forces occupied should be surrendered to National Socialist forces. Italian Fascists even helped Jews to escape persecution through routes to Spain. If they made it to an embassy they were granted citizenship. You won’t read that in most history books. Lastly, some suggest that the last 600 days of the war was the selfish attempt of Mussolini to remain in power like Hitler. This is not true. When Mussolini was rescued from prison by German forces, he was reluctant to remain in power. There was every indication that Mussolini, physically and morally exhausted, sought nothing more than to be allowed to disappear into history. Equally evident was the fact that Italy’s German allies had absolutely no intention of allowing that to happen. Hitler and his staff met a thin and tragically distracted Mussolini in order to inform him that he was to assume command of a restored Fascist government-ally of National Socialist Germany-in a war that clearly threatened to destroy them all. No one, least of all Mussolini, believed that the Axis powers could win the conflict then in what was clearly its final phase. His resumption of leadership was insisted upon by Hitler-and his position was secured by German arms. Mussolini was to be a puppet. He was in power and would remain in power-whether he or anyone else did, or did not, like it-as long as the Germans dominated the scene. From the very moment of his return to the leadership, it was absolutely clear that he would remain in power as long as Germany controlled what remained of the Italian peninsula. Given his abject dispense on National Socialist Germany, Mussolini could do very little more than he did. He acted to contain its worse excesses. He tried to leave somewhat of a legacy by establishing a “Socialist Fascism” to socialize the Italian economy. He did this against Hitler’s wishes. In Benito Mussolini’s final days he committed himself to the socialization of Italian industry and agriculture… None of this has been an attempt to justify any of the poor choices that Fascism made, it is to understand it.

No , it was supposedly a third-way ideology that neither socialism or capitalism , but in reality it was just an authoritarian style of capitalism. Socialism is egalitarian , represents the material interests of the proletariat and is anti-hierarchical. Fascism is anti-egalitarian , represents the nation and it's restoration and is hierarchical. 💯 They're totally different ideologies , but people have been brainwashed to believe they're the same...💯💯💯
