  1.  @Individual_Lives_Matter  In fasci sm, corporatism meant trade unions, not business corporations like Microsoft. Fasc ism was an outgrowth of Sore llian Syndic alism, which itself was an outgrowth from Mar xist soc ialism. The idea was that society would be conso lidated (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 Muss olini's infamous aphorism: "All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state."

  2. When it comes to fas cism, the word "corporation" does not mean what Am ericans think it means.

  3. There is no such thing as "cor porate fascis m" nor was corporatism used by Hi tler nor was it an economic policy. Stop using words that you do not understand.

  5. "Those on the political far right are moving much closer to fascism; this is especially apparent when studying various fascism experts." Wrong. Fascism was a totalitarian far-left, socialist ideology based on national syndicalism adapted from Georges Sore. Nothing to do with right wing of any kind whatsoever.

  7. This has nothing to do with Fascism whatsoever. Fascism was a totalitarian far-left, socialist 3rd position ideology based on National Syndicalism which they adapted from Georges Sorel. It rejected individualism, capitalism, liberalism/democracy, and marxism. The means of production was organized by national worker syndicals (i.e. trade unions), and the guiding philosophy of the state was Actual Idealism. 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 was 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." As created by Mussolini and Giovanni Gentile, Fascism comes from a belief that the "Stateless and Classless society" Communism calls for after its dictatorship cannot achieve Socialism, and that only the State can properly organize a Socialist Society. It cared about unity in a strong central government with society being brought together by syndicalist organizations obedient to the State.
