In case it isn't clear, this article is not someone who was there talking about the history of fascism. There are plenty of history books for that. The whole point of this article is to give a different perspective on fascism and to rewrite history in a new and original way that just so happens to be more convenient to them. This whole thing can be summarized simply as "Everything I dislike is fascism, even things that have absolutely nothing to do with fascism, and everything that actually is fascism and has a lot in common with my ideology, wasn't really fascism, and certainly wasn't socialism, even though they all called themselves Marxists" or to quote the article specifically: >The article on fascism signed by Mussolini in the Treccani Encyclopedia was written or basically inspired by Giovanni Gentile, but it reflected a late-Hegelian notion of the Absolute and Ethical State which was never fully realized by Mussolini in other words, sure it was developed by Marxists (Giovanni Gentile, and everyone else behind fascism were all Marxists philosopher), but it "wasn't real socialism". It is exactly the same "not real socialism" that all defenders of socialism always use when their ideology goes down the drain.
