Fascism is the merging of corporations and government. We have a mix of Fascism and Communism with a nice sprinkling of Technocracy. Just because they were opposite foes during WW2 doesn't mean they are such a black & white dichotomy today in America.
The main problem is the CENTRALIZATION of power which exists in both models, AKA Despotism. The Constitution de-centralized power, but slowly it has become more Federated and Centralized, and now all levels of government have become corrupt from the States to DC. In addition to that, government isn't even the only power because there are more unelected groups and powers calling the shots than elected officials.
You're retarded. I don't know where the meme that Fascism is corporations and the government colluding came from, but that's absolutely not what it is.
Communsists won WWII and taught you that Fascism is bad and, like a stupid Boomer, you believe them.
Please provide your definition of Fascism then. You can say what it's not, so why don't you define it?
Just use the Wikipedia definition. That's accurate.
Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism[1][2] characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and strong regimentation of society and of the economy[3] which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe.[4] The first fascist movements emerged in Italy during World War I, before spreading to other European countries.[4] Opposed to liberalism, democracy, Marxism, and anarchism, fascism is placed on the far right within the traditional left–right spectrum.[4][5][6]
Fascism is the merging of corporations and government.
According to our pal Razorfist, the world's greatest devotee of Il Duce, that quote of his about fascism being the merging of corporations and government is apocryphal at best.
I suspect that Il Duce did indeed not say the quote because the merging of corporations and government is the form of "capitalism" that (((Marx))) described, and what we have been living under since at least 1913 in the USA.
Do you have a more accurate definition of it than the merging of corporations & government?
I've heard that our great Uncle Adolf made sure to emphasize that the people came before the Reich.
So perhaps ole "Honest" Abe's line about "government of the people, by the people, for the people" applies to Fascism?
The Constitution de-centralized power
I'm not so sure that it did, because the anti-federalists were trying to tone it down and break it up from Day One of the Republic.
Compared to what we have today, sure, it is less centralized, but even George Washington was using the troops to beat up on Deplorables.
