What is Fascism?

[@ThisIsTheWater]

Good video, short and concise.

[@thepatriot47]

Once our history teacher (who btw used to beat us a lot) asked the same exact question "define fascism in less than 100 words." I was stupid enough to write his name, Karampal, as an example of a fascist leader in modren times. Needless to say, while the whole class found my answer funny and laughed, i got my cute lil ass whooped 😂

[@boodz0]

Worth it

[@ManthaarJanyaro]

Great to see you back, ❤

[@WeddingStoriesByRakesh]

Another example is the British Empire invading India

[@mejestic124]

nope, thats colonialism. The video failed to explain what fascism really is/was

[@Lonewolfdebnf]

@@mejestic124Yeah many leftists failed what facism is in their defenitions every nation is facist

[@gabrieldias6430]

really ? By the way I see people yelling at each other, I almost could swear "facist" was someone who disagrees with me

[@DaftRebel]

I was hopeing you mention the origins with Filippo Tomasso Marinetti's Futurist manifest!

[@daniellassander]

I find it funny its being used to describe right wingers, while especially nationalism was the lefts response to right wing patriotism, and both fascism and nazism were left wing ideologies, they are both heavily concerned with collectivism something right wingers dont like at all. But its the academics which writes the history and many academics likes socialism and collectivist ideas, so things got warped over time. Its quiet funny to watch anti fascists, acting exactly like the fascist brownshirts did. I know i will get a lot of pushback for saying this, which is perfectly fine. Thank you for a very good video :)

[@chadatchison145]

The push back you get is from the fact that everything you wrote is wrong lol.

[@daniellassander]

@@chadatchison145 You are free to your opinion but the facts tells another story, but in order to get them you need to do a deep dive in mussolini and hitler and their political leanings prior to them getting into power, what political decisions they made and what they pushed for. In the case of hitler you can start with the 25 point nazi program, many of the points are socialistic in origin. Which happens to be a far left ideology, if you want more i suggest reading main kampf but it is very dull and boring reading. The book itself is very boring in general so you will need some discipline to get through it.

[@jeffnaslund]

Typical right-wing projection and lack of personal responsibility and accountability

[@daniellassander]

@@chadatchison145 What i find very very interesting is that none of the people who upvoted your post could say even a single word in support. But if they sit on the facts its the first thing they would do, even if it is very uncomplete facts. But what i have noticed from other forums is that they get completely owned each and every time with just facts supporting my view. You think this is hard, its not its very very simple, if you are interested in facts, like Otto Hans describing the economy of nazi germany, the nazi germany 25 point plan, main kampf, what was said in speeches over nazi germany and people close to hitler. Every single thing supports my view and there is not a single shred of anything which supports your. So in order to cling to your beliefs you have to forsake reality and truth all together.

​@@chadatchison145she is right bro. You are the one in the wrong side of history.

[@timmothy58]

incomprehensible...

[@zeitGGeist]

Militarism meets nationalism meets imperialism. It’s that simple.

[@JoeyBlogs007]

Stop talking about Russia and China. LOL.

[@countschad]

You forgot to include the socialistic aspect of fascism...

[@gggo1789]

That's national socialism.

[@countschad]

@@gggo1789 I don't understand your point.

[@gggo1789]

@@countschad Do you know what national socialism is ?

[@countschad]

@@gggo1789 Please explain.

[@gggo1789]

@@countschadFascism is third positionist and is opposed to both capitalism / liberalism and socialism. Unlike Fascism, National Socialism finds itself in a more ''socialist'' economy (althought it denies it) than Fascism, which is why your statement was wrong.

[@Somedei]

now we got Demofascism

[@countschad]

It's an extreem leftwing idiology.

[@mrlarry271]

From this description it is basically Marxism but swap out class struggle for nationalism.

[@daniellassander]

Essentially yes, if you are interested you should do the fascism test online, you basically answer questions and they will tell you how much you agree with fascism, but dont worry about it everyone has some.

[@chadatchison145]

@@daniellassander No that's wrong lol.

[@luciferfernandez7094]

Fascism is authoritarianism from the right, communism is from the left. And, no, communism is not synonymous of Marxism.

[@daniellassander]

@@luciferfernandez7094 I dont want to be a bad guy here, but you are wrong, fascism is and was a far left ideology. And communism and Marxism are synonymous if you understand economics and thinks its important. You see the more marxist you go the less people will work and this really hurts the economy, so the state will get more and more ruthless, and you will understand why Stalin was considered a very totalitarian man. If you read any of Stalins prior writings he explicitly said it had to be voluntary, that no one could be forced and should never be forced. But once he gained power he saw that the economics was in shambles so more force was needed to be excercised so more people started working again. I know you dont agree with me, but read what Stalin himself said and you will come over to my side if you are honest.

@@daniellassander you are not the bad guy, you are just wrong. Look it up: “Fascism: Fascism is a far-right nationalistic movement first born in Italy at the beginning of the 20th century[1]. According to one of its main exponents - Benito Mussolini - the fascist philosophy is based on three main pillars[2]: “Everything in the state” “Nothing outside the state” “Nothing against the state” Fascists and nazis base their ideology on conservatism: they maintain national values like ethnicity, religion or whatever the social divide turned out to be: Rich are keep on top, workers are keep on bottom. Why do you thing Hitler and Mussolini were high on racism and classism? Marxism is a philosophy, which has several methods that can be applied to stuff beyond economics: for example language through structuralism. Communism is a form of government based on the tenuous Marx’s idea of working classes owning the means of production. The idea is so tenuous that the likes of Lenin or Mao rewrote it to their own agenda and the big difference is that in commie regimes the state owns the means of production, not the working class.
