fourteen defining features for fascism; i think that's a lot, some of them are framed very broadly, and i don't quite see how they all interconnect.
I wonder why it does not include 'readiness to suppress your political opponent', i would have thought that this is the defining feature of fascism; you can be all of the fourteen features, but as long as you don't smack your political opponents you are not a real fascist.
