What is fascistic?

A supporter of a form of government characterized by the merging of business leadership and the state, rigid one-party rule by the extreme right-wing emphasizing strong centralized power, with militarism, an aggressive nationalism, and the suppression of all opposition.

Key elements of a fascist state were exhibited both in Mussolini's Italy and Hitler's Germany.

Fascism By The Numbers:
1) Corporate Dominance of Law and Society
2) Military Supremacy in Funding and Policy
3) Reckless Nationalism in Foreign Affairs
4) Suppression of Organized Labor
5) Unification By Fear and Hatred
6) Expansion of Prisons and Prison Sentences
7) Usurpation of Power and Authority
8) Abuse of Human Rights at Home and Abroad
9) Religious Zealotry in Government and Military
10) Alliance with a Tightly Controlled Mass Media

The following statements illustrate the fascist mindset:

"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." -- Hermann Goering, Sr. Advisor to Adolph Hitler

"The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly…it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over." -- Joseph Goebbels, Senior Advisor to Adolph Hitler

In a 1995 essay "Eternal Fascism", the Italian writer and academic Umberto Eco attempts to list general properties of fascist ideology.

The features of fascism he lists are as follows:

>"The Cult of Tradition", combining cultural syncretism with a rejection of modernism

>"The Cult of Action for Action's Sake", which dictates that action is of value in itself, and should be taken without intellectual reflection, and often manifests in attacks on modern culture and science.

>"Disagreement is Treason" - fascism devalues intellectual discourse and critical reasoning as barriers to action.

>"Fear of Difference", which fascism seeks to exploit and exacerbate, often in the form of racism or an appeal against foreigners and immigrants.

>"Appeal to a Frustrated Middle Class", fearing economic pressure from the demands and aspirations of lower social groups.

>"Obsession With a Plot" and the hyping-up of an enemy threat.

>"Pacifism is Trafficking With the Enemy" because "Life is Permanent Warfare" - there must always be an enemy to fight.

>"Contempt for the Weak" - although a fascist society is elitist, everybody in the society is educated to become a hero.

>"Selective Populism" - the People have a common will, which is not delegated but interpreted by a leader.

>"Newspeak" - fascism employs and promotes an impoverished vocabulary in order to limit critical reasoning.

Fascistic - what does it mean?

1. Someone who believes in a totalitarian state rule by a supreme leader (dictator) who controls everything possible and treats people harshly -- to gain the leader's own success,* to foment an aggressive military nationalism, and to promote a Social Darwinist belief that hard life strengthens the state by weeding out the weak.

2. A lesser authority (corporation, mayor, cop, boss, parent) who legally issues harsh, burdensome, micro-managing, insensitive, or uncaring orders -- especially when they know, or should know, that their goals can be accomplished with more autonomy and much less hardship or distress.

3. A harsh and probably murderous kind of dictator; a "fascist dictator" as opposed to a "benign dictator".

4. If applied unfairly, a parent authority who is doing their job within reason, but their teen either doesn't agree with their agenda (10 PM curfew to help perform well in morning school), or is insincerely asserting their parent to be a harsh disciplinarian, in order to bond socially with friends.

5. If capitalized, is the name of the historic Italian Fascist political party. Benito Mussolini (Il Duce - "The Leader") was the Fascist founder and Prime Minister from 1922 to 1943, who built a cult of personality around himself using false media propaganda that he was always right, killed those relatively few unbrainwashed who opposed him, and unified Italy for an incompetent war to retake much of the old Roman empire. Apologists encapsulated their approval of his social control-freakery in the saying, "Il Duce made the trains run on time".


Background:

"fascist" connotates an official form of antisocial behavior, if society is understood to have valid comfort needs not met by a harsh authoritarian work ethic or supervision style.

"fascist" has general application to the misuse of hierarchical power in government, business, and religion, as well as to all other levels of society. As the global population increases, it will continue as one of the future's most important social issues.

"fascist" behavior can be observed in some form in everyday life, but is especially obvious on TV when ordered by right-wing politicians, mean bosses, and greedy corporations. Parents can be both fairly or unfairly labeled, because some parents are minor fascists, yet teens can't always tell what is fascist over-control, from what is just good parenting.


Near-synonyms:

Many folks should have said "fascist", if they misused "nazi" in poor taste, since the latter is properly reserved for genocide and extermination concerns only.

"fascist" is different from "racist", though racists are often fascists as well. But there are several nation-state military examples where the races have worked together to control the population in arguably fascist or at least military styles.

Unwary citizens can be duped by two-faced "cryptofascist" policies. For example, people in a dangerous neighborhood might accept a policy of police searching all houses for weapons. But the real purpose of the searches might be to locate books supporting the political opposition, and to intimidate or arrest people found nearby. Mussolini was the original cryptofascist, because he started his political life as a Socialist, and then turned against his former political friends when he came into power as a Fascist.

"That's fascist!"
"A fascist cop demanded to know where I was going."
"My fascist boss likes to say, 'My way or the highway'."
"My fascist dad won't let me stay out after 10 pm."
"Don't buy stuff from that fascist corporation; they fired employees sickened by handling their toxic waste."
"Chile's Augusto Pinochet was a fascist dictator, who murdered tens of thousands of his own people."
"Fascist Party leader Mussolini became Prime Minister by threatening to make Italy ungovernable."

Fascistic - meaning

A right wing authoritarian ideology with many different subgroups such as(but not limited to) national socialism, capitalist fascism and ecofascism. fascist ideologies are quite diverse and have many different core beliefs but are usually nationalistic and treat their race as there family. it is worth stating that fascists don't have to be racist, religious or genocidal.

Fascism is considered the third position as it is neither capitalist nor communist in its economic policies, though some like capitalist fascists are obviously a mix of capitalism and fascism, most fascists believe in corporatism which is the combining or strong cooperation between the state and the corporations usually for the betterment of society meaning the corporations have a social responsibility and their primary goal is not just to make profits this makes it easier for governments to make everything more streamlined and enforce their will if needed.

Fascist governments tend to be militaristic and isolationist as they only care about their people, land and sometimes the land and people of allies or similar countries.

Person 1: OMG you're such a fascist!
Person 2: you probably don't even know what that means
Person 1: shut up Nazi!
