The second quote is idiotic. Decisions made by fascist (or any
autocratic) leader need not be popular because the decisionmaker
does not need to worry about re-election (unlike in democracy).
This is the whole point. Not having to worry about being popular
is what enables decisions with longer-term effects in mind. This
is why we keep saying ecofascism is needed: the decisons that
need to be made will make life considerably less comfortable for
the next few generations and hence are bound to be unpopular,
but only such measures will actually allow us to solve
environmental problems.

On Fascism part II :
[quote]"Gentile... believed that the true state - his ethical
state - was a corpus - a body politic - hence corporate state -
and that the state was more important than the parts - the
individuals - who comprised it because if the state was strong
and free so too would be the individuals within it; therefore
the state had more rights than the individual."
"Only within the ethical state could individuals realise
themselves as proper individuals."[/quote]

Reference: Farrell, "Mussolini: A New Life," Chapter 11.
[quote]"The great social and constitutional reform that Fascism
is accomplishing, instituting the corporative syndicalist regime
as a substitute for the [old-fashioned capitalist] liberal
State, arose out of the very character of the Fascist State."
"Fascism accepted from Syndicalism the idea of the educative and
moral function of the syndicate."
"But since the intention was to overcome the antithesis between
the State and the syndicate, the effort was made to enter the
system of syndicates harmoniously into corporations subject to
discipline by the State and to thereby give expression to the
organic character of the State."[/quote]

[quote]"The people is the body of the state and the state is the
spirit of the people. In the Fascist concept the people is the
state and the state is the people... The tools with which the
idealita is achieved in the state, are the party and the
corporation."[/quote]

National Socialist's Critics on Fascism
[quote]Fascism: If we work together, we will have the power to
achieve any goal we want. (“It is humiliating to remain with our
hands folded while others write history. It matters little who
wins. To make a people great it is necessary to send them to
battle even if you have to kick them in the pants. That is what
I shall do.” – Benito Mussolini)
National Socialism: This is our goal. The only way to achieve it
is to work together. ( “They are inspired by the feeling that
they have a mission to fulfill, and we might just as well egg
them on a little.” – Adolf Hitler)[/quote]

[quote]"..we know from intimates of Hitler, and from his table
talks, that he was highly critical of Italian Fascism."
"While Hitler proclaimed repeatedly that National Socialism and
Fascism were related in Weltanschauung, or spoke of the
'community of the Fascist and National Socialist revolution',
his criticism of the Italian system grew increasingly sharp,
particularly after his visit to Italy in 1938."
"One might almost say that fascism has reacted upon the creative
life of the Italian people somewhat like sterilization. It is,
after all, nothing like National Socialism."
"While the latter goes deep down to the roots, fascism is only a
superficial thing. That is regrettable, but one must recognize
it clearly."
"National Socialism is really a way of life [eine
Weltanschauung]. It always begins at the beginning and lays new
foundations for life."
"That's why our task is so difficult, but also so beautiful, and
the goal ahead is well worth our best effort." - Joseph
Goebbels[/quote]

I am happy to see the term "fascism" used correctly for once:
HTML https://rmx.new
s/article/more-afraid-of-democracy-than-for-democracy-afd-ban-mo
ves-forward-in-german-parliament/
[quote]Germany is heading closer to outright fascism as the
establishment parties move to completely ban the rival
Alternative for Germany party (AfD), currently the
second-strongest party in the country, according to polling.
...
FDP MP Katja Adler slammed the motion on X, writing: “One could
get the impression that the supporters of the ban are more
afraid of democracy than for democracy.”[/quote]
This is correct. I am a supporter of the ban*. I am extremely
afraid of democracy. The popularity of the AfD is a good example
of why.
(* Not that I consider a ban alone to be enough. I advocate
physical extermination of all AfD voters.)
[quote]Sahra Wagenknecht also expressed criticism of the ban,
telling “T-Online” that instead of taking the legitimate
concerns of AfD voters seriously, they wanted to get rid of the
unwelcome competitor by banning it.[/quote]
AfD voters have no legitimate concerns. Of course we want to get
rid of unwelcome competitors by banning them! Refugee lives are
at stake FFS! You think maintaining a popularity contest is
worth endangering refugees?!
[quote]Various AfD politicians have already responded to the ban
proposal.
“I think that’s great. A ban motion against the AfD, supported
by the CDU and SPD. We will request a roll call vote. That
delegitimizes every single applicant and every yes-sayer and
every abstention vote as anti-democrats.[/quote]
Yes, we are anti-democrats! All anti-AfD people should admit it
proudly! Once we admit it, the AfD can no longer attack us for
it! It is only when you try to claim that the AfD is
anti-democratic that you look ridiculous!
[quote]There are also worries from the establishment that a ban
procedure would last years, during which time, the ban procedure
itself would only strengthen the AfD.[/quote]
Not if the AfD has to contend with daily assassinations.
[quote]Those opposed to the AfD already have a plan B if their
efforts to ban the party fail, which would be to cut state
funding to the party, which would effectively mean the end of
the party, as it would no longer be able to fund its activities
or pay employees.[/quote]
It would be funded by donations from supporters. Enough of these
half-measures! The correct way to attack the AfD is with bullets
and bombs!
[quote]Germany is now the only Western country that is seriously
attempting to enact a ban on a major opposition party. Although
such actions are routine in non-democratic nations, it would
mark a dark day in German history and point to the rise of
fascism and a party oligarchy in the country once again.[/quote]
This is accurate.

True Left breakthrough : New Left Nationalism
By: antihellenistic Date: October 14, 2024, 3:21 am
---------------------------------------------------------
New Leftist movements begin to form a new ideological worldview
[quote]In short, assimilation as a societal goal has grave
potential consequences for blacks and other nonwhites. However
utopian it appears, the color-blind assimilationist program
implies the hegemony of white culture.
Minute 3:04
Critical Race theorist believes that between integration and
color blindness all all of this rhetoric about trying to
downplay the significance of Race in our mind is not working out
for minorities, so they call for a sharp correction in the
opposite direction, by trying to normalize something they call
race consciousness.
Being Race conscious doesn't mean that you have kind of a casual
dim awareness of race, but it means that you look at race with
profound significance, whether it's how you self identify, or
maybe how you look whether it's how you self identify or maybe
how you look at other people or maybe how you interprate just
the general phenomena of the world. So this is a radical idea
that critical race revolutionary root in black nationalism and
in thinkers like Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael who both
argued against integration in favor of forming race conscious
collectives that could powerfully stand in society without
integrating.
In critical race theorist's own words, with it's explicit
embrace of race consciousness, Critical Race Theory aims to
re-examine the terms by which race and racism have been
negotiated in American consciousness, and to recover and
revitalize the radical tradition of race consciousness among
African-Americans and other people of color
"With its explicit embrace of race-consciousness, Critical Race
Theory aims to reexamine the terms by which race and racism have
been negotiated in American consciousness, and to recover and
revitalize the radical tradition of race-consciousness among
African-Americans and other peoples of color - a tradition that
was discarded whem integration, assimilation and the ide: of
color-blindness became the official norms of racial
enlightenment."
Minute 3:11 - 4:29
Critical Race Theorist looked at academia, and they looked at
the traditional ways that they felt the academics are supposed
to behave. And they boiled it down to a few values that
academics are supposed to have, and those values were to be
objective, neutral, and balanced. And they say those values
aren't shared American values or even shared worldwide academic
values, but instead values specifically from the white world
So, Critical Race Theorist believe that if you as an academic
try to be objective, neutral, and balanced regardless of your
skin color, your academic voice is [color=red]"white".[/color]
If your skin color happens to not be White, it just means that
you've integrated into the white world, and in this case
effectively lost your racial identity when it comes to your
academic voice. So Critical Race Theorist think that this Is
racist, because they think it presumes they the superiority in
this case of White academic values, and they want to put forward
their own Race conscious alternative that would be designed to
be distinctively not white. And that's a voice that they
grounded in the concept of authenticity. Authenticity here means
resisting integrating into the pressures of the white world, so
if you integrate to the white world, you're inauthentic. But if
you remain true to yourself by resisting integrating as someone,
that's not "white", then you're authentic.
...
Authentic non-white academic voice, as specifically being
subjective and political
Minute 6:53 - 8:26
...there is need to talk "one man, one vote" a little less and
to talk a little more of "political equity" and of functional
components of effective representation.
Minute 14:48 - 14:53
Capitalism is essentially racist; racism is essentially
capitalist. They were birthed together from the same unnatural
causes, and they shall one day die together from unnatural
causes.
Minute 15:23
that we should return to racial nationalism at least if we're
"not white" ...
...the exclusion of a nationalist approach to racial justice
from mainstream discourse has been a cultural and political
mistake
Minute 16:00[/quote]

[quote]It should be noted that Critical Race Theory is heavily
derived out of National Socialist Thought. The area of
"subjectivity" and "authenticity" specifically comes from Martin
Heidegger.
The opposition to bourgeois "objectivity" by "authenticity" is
verbatim taken out of Heidegger's theories on Dasein. CRT is far
more Heideggerian than it is Marxist.[/quote]

[quote]Actually, Marxism acknowledges biology as a direct
ontological outgrowth of "material reality" where as Fascism
proclaims the consciousness of the mind to be the basis of
reality. You thus have it reversed.
Marxism is built on dialectical materialism and Lenin's vulgar
materialism holds biology as reality beyond the mind because in
Lenin's view, even consciousness itself is the product of
matter.
Fascism, on the other hand, is built on Gentile's philosophy of
"Actual Idealism" or "Actualism" which fundamentally rejects the
vulgar materialism of Engels and Lenin, and proclaims Marx to
have been a "confused idealist".
In fact, critical race theory came out of Fascism. It was
critical race theory that was used to construct the Italian
national identity which was otherwise not actualized due to the
decentralized sense of ethnos in Italy at the time. People
identified more with their regions and cities than they did with
the concept of an "Italian nation". It was the critical race
theory of Fascism that gave rise to a sense of "Italianess" and
thus the self recognition of an "Italian nation"
The Fascists developed "critical theory" first. The Frankfurt
School simply adopted it for their own purposes.
There are two aspects to "critical theory". "Consciousness
construction" and "consciousness deconstruction". Both these
aspects are useful tools in creating new social constructs,
maintaining current social constructs or destroying old and
outdated social constructs.[/quote]

Real meaning of Fascism
[quote]...we must create an ‘ethical state’ that benefits the
whole society. The nation, for Gentile, is not just a collection
of individuals united by a common goal (a concept he calls
immoral). The nation, he said, unites all people in one state -
one superconsciousness. And it is through the state and the
nation that the individual forms himself. ‘Individualism and
egoism,’ he said, ‘are problems that must be overcome.’ And
Gentile said ‘that true self-fulfillment can only be achieved by
becoming one with the State and the historical community’. One
important thing to take away from all this is that, although we
are spiritually connected, Gentile recognizes the individual as
a consciousness that stands alone.[/quote]
Watch the video at minute 37:56 to 38:51
[quote]Racism is not mentioned in the 'Doctrine of Fascism'
written by Gentile and signed by Mussolini. And in 1937, Gentile
even wrote an article saying that German anti-Semitism was a
"monstrous barbarism" unworthy of a civilized society.[/quote]
Watch the video at 41:33 to 41:54
[quote]The Fascist Movement is NOT on the “Far-Right” Political
Spectrum. They are on the third positionist Political
Spectrum.[/quote]

[quote]At times, conservatism can manifest a form of
ultranationalism that stands apart from fascism. This type
focuses on xenophobia and the concept of an organic society as
means to safeguard existing or bygone social frameworks from
perceived deterioration.
...
It's important to correct the misconception that
ultranationalism is exclusively tied to the framework of a
nation-state. Ultrananationalism can take on forms that go
beyond traditional national boundaries.[/quote]

"Hitler was Antifa"
I do not recommend this choice of terminology. Present-day
antifa are either not opposed to communism (unlike Hitler) or if
they are opposed to communism do so from an anarchist
perspective (unlike Hitler who was a statist).
