Nope, but I know a few fascist parties that didn't have racism in their policies.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.
no im not saying that-the racial aspect was NASDP being pushed by hitler but everything else was esentially textbook fascist. Italy was less fascist than Germany though. And I think that if Italy was independent to hitler they would have never set up concentration camps.Flecco wrote:

FYI Italian fascism was pretty racist too.

No, in WWII Mussolini was Hitlers bitch and just did what he was told- Benny boy himself had nothing against Jews or Gypsies or whatever.Flecco wrote:

I was under the impression that Mussolini wrote the textbook on Fascism...

Nah, Franco was quite racist I believe... I dunno in my book those two go together somehow... Can't think of fascism without the element of racism. I'd really like to see what those parties have to say Flecco, they sound interesting!Macbeth wrote:

Pretty much. Fascism is ultra-conservative and conservatism means usually they like the old heritage of their country which is in most cases a single race. So when you have a hard right party like fascism you get the whole 'ethnic cleansing' 'final solution' sort of thing going on.oug wrote:

Flecco is right. Italy under Mussolini was the first ever fascist state. Foreigners were a target at the time in Italy and they still are today for the fascists - who in fact count big numbers in Italy. No wonder they re-elected that fucker Berlusconi.SealXo wrote:

I'm pretty positiv-o on this because I just did this chapter in AP European this week. (And got an A on the FRQ about Fascism)
Italy itself was never fully fascist.
Yes, in WW2 Mussolini was 'Hitler's bitch', but Italy under Mussolini was incredibly racist toward the slavs of Eastern Europe. Not to the point of concentration camps but definitely widespread discrimination. Again, the Nazis took the fascist model from the Italians, not the other way around. To say that the Nazis were 'more fascist' than Italy under Mussolini implies that you don't give a shit about fascism's definition according to the fella who came up with it, and instead apply your own definition of what constitutes a fascist regime retrospectively. This is the problem with the modern understanding of the fascist system. Everybody attaches so much importance to Nazi Germany as the quintessential fascist state. It wasn't. Only massive propaganda efforts from the Allies resulting from WW2 caused it to be held up as so. Is there a quintessentially capitalist state? A quintessentially communist state in history? A quintessentially socialist state? No, because they haven't been boxed up conveniently so people don't draw correlations with the current corporatism so prevalent in the western world today. The English language is far to politicised imo.SealXo wrote:

Like I explained, in terms of how they think, hell in terms of how even in todays modern world people think, the term "white person" is mainly used to describe someone of European origin. Jews aren't necessarily of European Origin (sort of) - so that's how it worksDoctaStrangelove wrote:
Speaking from an American stand-point, it is all about nativism/nationalism. The majority of American Jews immigranted from the late 1800's to the mid 1900's. The nativist believes that all foreigners are evil and thus ought to be destroyed. While all whites in America are foreigners if you go back long enough, the American navtivist believes that the "real Americans" are Scottish or German decent, as those were the countries that had the most emigrants to America during the 1700's. So Jews aren't "real Americans" and are thus bad. Somehow.
Catholics in America are mostly from Ireland, Italy and Poland and thus the nativists hate them too.
But the thing with American racism is that there are really two kinds. The KKK kind who claims that you need to be a white protestant, and the Neo-Nazis who just require you to be white. And Jews are for some inexplicable reason not white.
If this makes any sense to you, you need to kill yourself. Even I am confused by my pwn words.

I'd counter that fascism in general didn't last long. Corporatism survives today but fascism is dead.oug wrote:

I know. I just mentioned his name to give an example as to why people would hate the jewish community. Having said that, even the jewish community would hate that bastard considering he screwed many of them over too. Now much of the jew gold has escaped the jew cave (lulz cartman)ATG wrote:

The stereotype that jews stick together may have contributed to the anti-semetic views people hold. It's well known that they are successful but I think many people find them selfish because they generally do keep the wealth within their own community rather than sharing it. The fact that the jewish community is so strong and well established has created this almost alien like image of a group of people terribly uninviting and uninterested in others (south park played on this quite a bit).
Jews are generally quite successful people and this is envied by many which eventually can turn into hatred.
