Thank you for posting this. So many people on the left and right associate fascism with the methods that fascists used to gain and maintain power, rather than on the ideology at its core.

They also make no distinction between corporations controlling governments and governments controlling corporations. They lump them both into the category of fascism.

I personally believe that the US and much of Western Europe is now immune from fascism because of ethnic diversity and so many people being so far removed from the land that the ideology of fascism no longer has a place in the West.

Also, since corporations are multinational it is hard to see how any national government could put those corporations that are merely incorporated in their countries under their thumb. If the WEF, IMF, UN, etc. can successfully rein in the multinationals then we would have some global ideology that would more approximate Marxism than fascism.

China appears to be fascist. Japan, and other countries that are still ethnically homogenous, could become fascist but I think even that is a long shot. With corporations becoming multinational, and so many careers so far removed from the particular geographic features of each country, fascism is now merely an invective launched against one's political enemies.

It means something other than that which Mussolini and Hitler intended. It’s evolved. But his analysis of its historical origins are helpful in figuring out what it is. A lot of American black militants are unmistakably fascist, but it’s separatist ethnic socialism, not national socialism, because they want to destroy the nation called America. But they also want to form a separate nation that I’ve nick-named Bro-homia, as opposed to what Ron Kuby used to call White-landia. This kind of separatism will turn San Francisco and other gay enclaves into Fudge-pack-istans. Things will get pretty interesting.

What do you think the "Great Reset" is all about? And the U.S. government has increasing control over corporations in this country, something that has accelerated since the Obama years.

Come with me to the hospital I work and you can meet immigrants bastards from every s**thole country on the planet, including Western and Eastern Europe and 9 out of 10 of them will tell you America sucks as it is and needs to adopt socialism. Makes my head explode.
