Fascism is authoritarianism

2018-09-28 23:13:35 UTC  

yeah

2018-09-28 23:13:39 UTC  

Like extreme authoritarianism

2018-09-28 23:14:33 UTC  

The axis was conservative in a way I guess

2018-09-28 23:14:35 UTC  

also fascism usually creates a different culture with roots in the past

2018-09-28 23:14:41 UTC  

Conservative actually doesn’t mean trwdionalist

2018-09-28 23:14:48 UTC  

There’s a lot of types of conservatives

Fascism can work with traditionalism

2018-09-28 23:15:08 UTC  

It just means someone whose trying to conserve/preserve an ideology

2018-09-28 23:15:10 UTC  

Alright, class, time to open up your copy of *The Doctrine of Fascism* by Giovanni Gentile and Benito Mussolini

2018-09-28 23:15:14 UTC  

*ehem*

I don't see what prevents a fascist state from promoting traditionalism as well

2018-09-28 23:15:16 UTC  

The axis was conservative

2018-09-28 23:15:17 UTC  

(one second)

2018-09-28 23:15:25 UTC  

pure conservatism would be something like monarchism

2018-09-28 23:15:29 UTC  

But fascism isn’t inheritely conservative

2018-09-28 23:15:41 UTC

"conservatives" are shills

2018-09-28 23:15:51 UTC

2018-09-28 23:15:56 UTC  

@Ghost of Descartes well that’s because monarchy is one of the oldest forms of actual government

"The Fascist conception of life is a religious one (7), in which man is viewed in his immanent relation to a higher law, endowed with an objective will transcending the inúdividual and raising him to conscious membership of a spiritual society. "Those who perceive nothing beyond opportunistic considerations in the religious policy of the Fascist regime fail to realize that Fascism is not only a system of government but also and above all a system of thought."

2018-09-28 23:16:46 UTC  

I haven't looked into it.

" In the Fascist conception of history, man is man only by virtue of the spiritual process to which he contributes as a member of the family, the social group, the nation, and in function of history to which all nations bring their contribution. Hence the great value of tradition in records, in language, in customs, in the rules of social life (8). Outside history man is a nonentity. Fascism is therefore opposed to all individualistic abstractions based on eighteenth century materialism; and it is opposed to all Jacobinistic utopias and innovations. It does not believe in the possibility of "happiness" on earth as conceived by the economistic literature of the XVIIIth century, and it therefore rejects the theological notion that at some future time the human family will secure a final settlement of all its difficulties. This notion runs counter to experience which teaches that life is in continual flux and in process of evolution. In politics Fascism aims at realism; in practice it desires to deal only with those problems which are the spontaneous product of historic conditions and which find or suggest their own solutions (9). Only by entering in to the process of reality and taking possession of the forces at work within it, can man act on man and on nature (10)."

>not traditional

2018-09-28 23:18:17 UTC  

What is the higher law in fascism?

2018-09-28 23:26:55 UTC  

K

2018-09-28 23:27:01 UTC  

I guess I've been proved wrong.

2018-09-28 23:29:31 UTC  

But I still think that fascism is a horrible ideology and that traditionalist conservatism is better.

2018-09-28 23:30:51 UTC  

At least Italian fascism.
