Unity

The fasces of unity
National and social unity was symbolized by the fasces themselves, the bound sticks being stronger together than individually.[48] This drew on military themes from World War I, where Italians were called to pull together into a unity.[49] Mussolini openly proclaimed that Fascists were willing to kill or die when it was a question of the fatherland as the March on Rome was prepared.[50] Similarly, he declared that the State did not weaken the individual, any more than a soldier was weakened by the rest of the regiment.

“Unity” and “equity”. Fascism twists and then uses these terms to attract the gullible and the useful idiots.
