Wrong. Fascism is a far right political theory.

Obviously you did not read the link, but simply regurgitated the same old specious argument that Fascism and Socialism are antithetical.

Read and learn.

One research piece does not overturn empirical evidence. Learn a few things about research and come back again.

Fascism really ought to be called corporatism, as it is the meeting of corporate and govt power.

quote from Benito Mussolini.

really, who cares about the political origins of Fascism? the important thing is seeing its signs so you can identify and stop it.

it is my understanding that at the theoretical level facism and Communism are polar opposites. Communism seeks to dissolve political barriers and have a united proletariate worldwide. Facism seeks to instill strong nationalism in its citizens (overlooking financial origins of citizens) and (often) have that nation be the alpha male of a given political bloc. In practice, Facism (especially national-socialism) and "Communism" are very similar: Tools for a totalitarian regime to be headed by one, both are brutally repressive, strongly socialistic and inequalities in both (some people are more equal than others), etc. Makes sense to me.

You should take your own advice. Your sole opinion carries less weight than the one piece of evidence that I presented.
