Who Is "Fascist"?
 
Those who put a high value on words may recoil at the title of Jonah
Goldberg's new book, "Liberal Fascism." As a result, they may refuse
to read it, which will be their loss -- and a major loss.

Those who value substance over words, however, will find in this book
a wealth of challenging insights, backed up by thorough research and
brilliant analysis.

This is the sort of book that challenges the fundamental assumptions
of its time -- and which, for that reason, is likely to be shunned
rather than criticized.

Because the word "fascist" is often thrown around loosely these days,
as a general term of abuse, it is good that "Liberal Fascism" begins
by discussing the real Fascism, introduced into Italy after the First
World War by Benito Mussolini.

The Fascists were completely against individualism in general and
especially against individualism in a free market economy. Their
agenda included minimum wage laws, government restrictions on profit-
making, progressive taxation of capital, and "rigidly secular"
schools.

Unlike the Communists, the Fascists did not seek government ownership
of the means of production. They just wanted the government to call
the shots as to how businesses would be run.

They were for "industrial policy," long before liberals coined that
phrase in the United States.

Indeed, the whole Fascist economic agenda bears a remarkable
resemblance to what liberals would later advocate.

Moreover, during the 1920s "progressives" in the United States and
Britain recognized the kinship of their ideas with those of Mussolini,
who was widely lionized by the left.

Famed British novelist and prominent Fabian socialist H.G. Wells
called for "Liberal Fascism," saying "the world is sick of
parliamentary politics."

Another literary giant and Fabian socialist, George Bernard Shaw, also
expressed his admiration for Mussolini -- as well as for Hitler and
Stalin, because they "did things," instead of just talk. In Germany,
the Nazis followed in the wake of the Italian Fascists, adding racism
in general and anti-semitism in particular, neither of which was part
of Fascism in Italy or in Franco's Spain.

Even the Nazi variant of Fascism found favor on the left when it was
only a movement seeking power in the 1920s.

W.E.B. DuBois was so taken with the Nazi movement that he put
swastikas on the cover of a magazine he edited, despite complaints
from Jewish readers.

Even after Hitler achieved dictatorial power in Germany in 1933,
DuBois declared that the Nazi dictatorship was "absolutely necessary
in order to get the state in order."

As late as 1937 he said in a speech in Harlem that "there is today, in
some respects, more democracy in Germany than there has been in years
past."

In short, during the 1920s and the early 1930s, Fascism was not only
looked on favorably by the left but recognized as having kindred
ideas, agendas and assumptions.

Only after Hitler and Mussolini disgraced themselves, mainly by their
brutal military aggressions in the 1930s, did the left distance
themselves from these international pariahs.

Fascism, initially recognized as a kindred ideology of the left, has
since come down to us defined as being on "the right" -- indeed, as
representing the farthest right, supposedly further extensions of
conservatism.

If by conservatism you mean belief in free markets, limited
government, and traditional morality, including religious influences,
then these are all things that the Fascists opposed just as much as
the left does today.

The left may say that they are not racists or anti-semites, like
Hitler, but neither was Mussolini or Franco. Hitler, incidentally, got
some of his racist ideology from the writings of American
"progressives" in the eugenics movement.

Jonah Goldberg's "Liberal Fascism"
http://www.amazon.com/Liberal-Fascis...dp/0767917189/
is too rich a book to be summarized in a newspaper column. Get a copy
and start re-thinking the received notions about who is on "the left"
and who is on "the right." It is a book for people who want to think,
rather than repeat rhetoric.

this is nothing more than right wing propagandists trying to redefine
terms. Like they made liberal a bad word. Marx was right. It all
comes down to class warfare. Either we let the ultra wealthy
conservatives hide behind their corporations and run the government
for their own personal benefit, or we let the people run the
government for the benefit of all. Fascism is the ultra wealthy
controlling the government. Liberalism has attempted to take that
control back and put it in the hands of The People. Such was the
purpose of The US Constitution. A very liberal document by the way.

Fascist Benito Mussolini and socialist Roosevelt held each other in
high regard.
Roosevelt was a Big fan of Mussilini fascism because he recognized
that fascism was the only means to true Socialism.

I would by far rather have the Private Sector run government than have
The Governement run the private sector.

War is pure fascist socialism. The nationalists subsidize the defense
industry with no-bid contracts, while fomenting conflict abroad. A
revolving door is installed between the military and the defense
industry and retired generals become lobbyists, consultants, and BOD
directors.

But this kind of corporate welfare and inbreeding permeates our entire
social structure. Laws are written to ensure a growing need for prison
beds, now a largely for-profit enterprise. This is why pot will never
be legal; potheads meake great prisoners. They are non-violent and
good workers.

Our society is totally ****ed-up. I do hope it collapses completely, so
we can have a fresh start. Too bad we just can't identify more with the
Nazis; their lesson is a good one.

And millions of American eager to swallow.

Like they made liberal a bad word. Â*Marx was right. Â*It all comes
down to class warfare. Â*Either we let the ultra wealthy conservatives
hide behind their corporations and run the government for their own
personal benefit, or we let the people run the government for the
benefit of all. Â*Fascism is the ultra wealthy controlling the
government. Â*Liberalism has attempted to take that control back and
put it in the hands of The People. Â*Such was the purpose of The US
Constitution. Â*A very liberal document by the way.


Yup.

cultivation of ignorance?

The insane twist the facts to fit their world view. The rational change

Fascist Benito Mussolini and socialist Roosevelt held each other in high
regard.
Roosevelt was a Big fan of Mussilini fascism because he recognized that
fascism was the only means to true Socialism.

I would by far rather have the Private Sector run government than have
The Governement run the private sector.

Read "The Road to Sefdom".


You seem to have answered your own question: Mussolini was a fascist.

Your ridiculous unsupported claims that Roosevelt was a "socialist" and
that "he recognized that fascism was the only means to true Socialism"
are your own demented creations.

The reality is that socialism is a political manifestation in which the
government _OWNS_ the means of production. Fascism is ab-use of
government by the wealthy and powerful in league with the church to
maintain and enhance the power of the owner class. These two political
contrivances are entirely different.

War is pure fascist socialism.


To bad you are so brainwashed, cuz you have some
interesting ideas. But you'll never find truth.
It's pure fascisism, nothing socialistic
about it. But that concept is taboo in America.
Judging from your lingo, you've
been brainwashed by the RW libertarians,
probably the LP Libertarians.
What a waste.

Wanna test that concept?
Most people would not, they shift into self
defense mode at the very idea, and close down.

In our specific context; Here's how they do it:
They have re-defined "socialism" in your
mind. Try a dictionary.
Here's 20 of them: www.onelook.com/

Caution: they are similar enough to your implanted
version, you will need extreme critical thinking.

The nationalists subsidize the defense
industry with no-bid contracts, while fomenting conflict abroad.


Yes. But it's more than the nationalists.
It's any politician under the defense industry's thumb.
defense industry = defense industry's loby.
....Looks like this:

"...merger of State and corporate power."

" Fascism should more appropriately be called
Corporatism because it is a merger of State and
corporate power."
--Benito Mussolini

A
revolving door is installed between the military and the defense
industry and retired generals become lobbyists, consultants, and BOD
directors.


Bingo. See above. - Mussolini
"corporate welfare" see above. - Mussolini

But this kind of corporate welfare and inbreeding permeates our entire
social structure.


Yup. see above. - Mussolini
See also:

Military Industrial Complex Eisenhower:
** "In the counsels of Government, we must guard
** against the acquisition of unwarranted influence,
** whether sought or unsought, by the Military Industrial
** Complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of

** liberties or democratic processes."
** - President Dwight Eisenhower, January 1961.

"...merger of State and corporate power."

"...ownership of government by an individual,
by a group or any controlling private powers."

Laws are written to ensure a growing need for prison
beds, now a largely for-profit enterprise. This is why pot will never
be legal; potheads meake great prisoners. They are non-violent and
good workers.


Yup. The merger of State and corporate power.

Our society is totally ****ed-up. I do hope it collapses completely, so
we can have a fresh start. Too bad we just can't identify more with the
Nazis; their lesson is a good one.

Could be. But that's off topic.
That is a false, manufactured dichotomy.
....either a red herring or strawman,
I'm guessing from sloppy thinking due to
kneejerk grabbing at straws.

Can we stay on topic?

Yep. See my above comment. ...Off topic.
However, I'm not up on the latest LP Libertarian
"talking points." The LP completly robs Libertarians
from the freedom to communicate with outsiders by
redefining key vocabulary terms (such as socialism,
taxes, government...google: Libertarian "Orwellian Linguistics")

Bingo. To further clarify, socialism is against Capitalism,
but Capitalism is part of Fascism.
