Don’t think I can agree with this list being specific to fascism. It’s a slice that holds true across every human ideology.

- krapp 5y ago>It’s a slice that holds true across every human ideology. It really doesn't. Like, I understand false equivalence is the end form of modern internet political philosophy, because it's the most cynical take and requires the least effort, but the premise that all human ideologies are essentially equivalent to fascism seems at best aggressively naive.
- glitchc 5y agoI think you’ve misunderstood my statement altogether. I did not equate fascism with all ideologies, rather Umberto’s definition of fascism. Can you explain why his attributes are specific to fascism and not to others? Those of us who are less philosophically equipped would love to learn from your expertise.
