"The Fascist state is more than a state, a dynamo" (Pellizzi). Fascists opposed Romanticism, instead favouring a pragmatic authoritarianism. They criticised "sensitivity, without direction" (Pound). The past was a springboard for action & unity, not a nostalgia to return to.

Fascism, contrary to New Left conjecture of being built on "nostalgia" was just as much of an end-of-history ideology as Liberalism and Marxism. Yet rather than seeking the dissipation or abrogation of societal strife, it was brought under subjugation of the State/Race.

If the Nazis had actually conquered America, the most stubborn and violent resistance to them would come from Southerners dressed in Klan uniforms lynching Krauts.

You do not "need money to not starve" in any Western country in 2026. People do not die from outright starvation anymore, the impoverished are more likely to be obese than the wealthy. The poor are completely provided for by welfare and charity, neither of which they pay for.

@JackalopeRider1 What part of needing money to not starve is voluntary?

Discontent with this kind of thinking is at the root of the rise of populism because it can be applied to any & every ideology that has ever existed, including progressivism. This extreme rooting out of an "other" was far more prevalent in the USSR than Fascist societies anyways.

"Hitler respected Muslims" no. Fascists hate everyone, period. They will make temporary alliances, but there's no group they won't eventually go after, including currently considered "white" ones. It's an ideology of perpetual oppression of "others".

Symbols do not innately carry holistic meaning, nor are they chained to their historical context. They can be rewritten to emphasize one minor (or anachronistic) element at the expense of historical perceptions & intentions. Carlism is now a left-wing ideology in Spain.

I find it weird how some republics, like Hungary, use symbols of a monarchy to represent a republic.
