@Faustian Imperium: Monarchy is far left, since it's centralized power. Far right wants power to be decentralized. Far right would be libertarianism.

@jordrider1917 : Muss olini never denounced so cia lis m though. After he was kicked out of the Italian PSI, which was a ma rxi st party, he denounced ma rxis m. Even according to Muss olini himself, he would always remain a so cia list. Mus soli ni also didn't come up with the fa sci st ideology... that was a so ci ali st philosopher Giov anni Gen tile. "You cannot get rid of me because I am and always will be a so ci ali st. You hate me because you still love me.“ — Ben ito Muss olini, Denis Mack Smith, Muss olini: A Biography (1983) p. 8. As quoted by Mus solini after he was expelled from the Italian So ci ali st Party in 1914. 1910s "Do not believe, even for a moment, that by stripping me of my membership card you do the same to my So ci ali st beliefs, nor that you would restrain me of continuing to work in favor of So ci ali sm and of the R evolu tion.“ — Be nito Muss olini, Speech at the Italian So ci al ist Party’s meeting in Milan at the People’s Theatre on Nov. 25, 1914.

@Andrew-ob5ij : Wrong. Mu sso lini didn't cr ush un ions, he na tion aliz ed them and tr ade un ioni sm (sy ndic ali sm) was e ssen tial part of how fa scis m w orked. Fas cist s were (st ate) soci alis ts. Read so me hist ory.

@Andrew-ob5ij : They pr ivati zed nothing. They nationalized almost everything like the na zis did. Mus soli ni didn't want people co mpeting against the in terest of his fa sci st sta te. Private se ctor was not a thing. Priv ate prop erty was not a thi ng, unl ess you did exa ctly what the sta te told you to do with "your property". I hig hly sugg est you go and read "the doctrine of fa scis m" or at the very le ast, their m anif esto.

@Andrew-ob5ij : Hit ler and Mu ssoli ni were simply imitating Le nin, who had earlier closed down all independent labor associations, factory committees and worker cooperatives, banned strikes, walkouts, and lockouts. Although Hit ler and Mu ssoli ni followed Len in’s nati onalizi ng craze, their treatment of wor kers did not mimic their Ru ssi an counterparts.

@Andrew-ob5ij : Mu sso lini was a f ar le ft so cia li st, just an ti-m ar xi st.
