Giovanni Gentile on Fascism
2008-06-07 05:44:00 Updated June 18:Gentile is one of my favorite rightwing intellectuals, not because I agree with him of course, but because he is a true intellectual, and I respect that even in my ideological enemies.Beats fake intellectual clowns like Jonah Goldberg any day of the weak. The fascists were not liars peddling bullshit and crap like so many of today's rightwing intellectuals. Classic fascist doctrine held a lot of important truths and was not dishonest at all. Instead of being a pile of crap and lies, it merely peddled repugnant truths.The Doctrine of Fascism, by Gentile (supposedly by Mussolini himself, but Gentile actually wrote it) from 1932, is the clearest evocation of Mussolini-type fascism, which was different in important ways from the biological racism of the Nazis. Let's take a look at some excerpts from this seminal essay. In particular, we will note how Mussolini's fascism differs from Marxism, because the two are often confused.Mussolini came to power after the "March ...

Is Wikipedia a Front for Fascism?
2008-06-06 04:49:00 Updated June 18:Check out this crap article. Not that such a thing does not exist, but in the true sense, it doesn't really. Communists usually don't go around blowing up markets and whatnot. I can't believe Wikipedia even has an article like this - it's blatant anti-Communist propaganda.There used to be lots of BS articles like this - Kurdish Terrorism, Palestinian Terrorism, on and on, you get the picture. Of course, they were created and maintained by nationalist assholes, in the first case, Jewish nationalist assholes, and in the second case, Turkish nationalist assholes. Most of those articles have been deleted.You really need to understand how Wikipedia is supposed to work. The very idea of an article called "______ Terrorism" is virtually an Neutral Point of View (NPOV) violation right there.I am not saying that Wikipedia is complete crap. When it works as intended, it's actually pretty nice. NPOV is often properly invoked, and articles are tempered down to be as objecti...

We are all susceptible to liberal fascism
2008-05-07 17:31:00 Liberal Fascism, as we saw from yesterday's post, is an attempt by governmental leaders to perfect society in name of doing what the "will of the people" calls for by tinkering with the government; by creating social programs, a type of totalitarian government with regulations, laws, tax hikes and the like to create an ideal state (utopia, a perfect society).

Progressivism is liberalsim is fascism
2008-05-06 17:41:00 Johah Goldberg has written an excellent and intelectually deep book called "Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left from Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning." It's quite interesting, because it brings up a concept about liberalism that I had heard of before, but was not aware that it was a form of fascism. Perhaps it's because liberals control the media and write the history

Goldberg’s “Liberal Fascism”
2008-03-17 19:21:00 I had planned on wrting up something about Goldberg’s new book… I’ve been making noises about sitting down and reading the thing for a few weeks now, and finally got to sit down and start the project. I hadn’t planned on writing seomthing on it until next week… but I suppose Billy mentioning it was enough to open my own editor. While not as far along as Billy reports he is, I think I can say I tend to agree with Billy’s read: “I can recommend Goldberg’s book to the intellectually curious, but I do warn you that it falls between the cracks being neither a strictly scholarly work nor yet a popularization.” Jonah Goldberg links Jerry Pournelle’s remarks on the former’s “Liberal Fascism”. A bit over half way through it now, and that’s a pretty good one-line take on the thing. I might put it rather differently and say that the… heft of the writing doesn’t match its own reference material. ...

The Protect The Bush Administration Act
2008-03-16 21:16:00 So far the House has defied Bush on telecom immunity. Those left right wingers over at CATO have been explaining why they should continue to do so. The current FISA act gives the government all the power it needs to wiretap people it should be wiretapping while making it difficult to wiretap those it shouldn't be. The Bush administration doesn't want the telecoms to go to court because it was wiretapping groups or individuals it shouldn't have. The New York Times finally gets it:The Intelligence Cover-Up For more than two years now, Congress, the news media, current and former national security officials, think tanks and academic institutions have been engaged in a profound debate over how to modernize the law governing electronic spying to keep pace with technology. We keep hoping President Bush will join in.Instead, the president offers propaganda intended to scare Americans, expand his powers, and erode civil liberties ? and to ensure that no one is held to account for the ill...

Liberal Fascism: California court wants to ban homeschooling
2008-03-07 01:54:00 Parents who lack teaching credentials cannot educate their children at home, according to a state appellate court ruling that is sending waves of fear through California's home schooling families. Advocates for the families vowed to appeal the decision to the state Supreme Court. Enforcement until then appears unlikely, but if the ruling stands, home-schooling supporters say California will have the most regressive law in the nation. It's funny. About a month ago, I was trying to make the point that many liberals have a totalitarian impulse, and I used the example of homeschooling. I offered as evidence this testimony from a home schooler about how the state harasseses her for preferring her own loving care over state care and this example from France . I was careful not to say that the the American left wanted to ban parental education so as not to overstate the case. Well, in my caution, I actually understated the case. To paraphrase H.L. Mencken, liberal fascism is the haunti...

So who are the Fascists?
2008-02-26 16:38:00 Many of my Republican friends criticize McCain as a leftist. I can see the point. But we ought not be too quick to believe that all forms of anti-libertarian ideology are leftist. We need to recognize that there is a form of non-leftist statism of a very distinct kind. It is not socialist in the traditional sense. It believes in a corporate state, combined with protectionism and belligerence in foreign policy. The right-wing predecessors here are Mussolini, Franco, and Hitler, and the name of the ideology is fascism.~Lew Rockwell The first person to compare the Bush Republican Party to Hitler and Mussolini was not a leftists but a Republican - the former assistant Secretary of the Treasury under Ronald Reagan and associate editor of the Wall Street Journal, Paul Craig Roberts. Libertarian Lew Rockwell continues that comparison today in:Triumph of the Red-State Fascists.Rockwell begins with a discussion of the precursor to today's Republican Party, the red-baiters of the 50s.
