What will fascism be wrapped in if/when it comes?

In the past, it has wrapped itself in a rebellion or 'revolution' against the existing powers.

Boy are you wrong. Fascism or any totalitarian regime has always been based on a monopoloy of state power, not a rebellion against state power. Look at Hitler, Mussolini or Lenin, each with its received spiritual orthodoxy, each wrapped in the flag of the motherland.

Really? Or was it a perception of reinforcement of existing powers under a false assertion of attack? Like Italy, and Germany? One rightist, and the other leftist, but both using the same control (fasces) techniques.
