Fascism is a liberal document wrongly associated with Nazism.
The Manifesto (published in Il Popolo d’Italia on June 6, 1919) is divided into four sections, describing the movement’s objectives in political, social, military and financial fields.[2]
Politically, the Manifesto calls for:
Universal suffrage with a lowered voting age to 18 years, and voting and electoral office eligibility for all ages 25 and up;
Representation at government level of newly created national councils by economic sector;
The abolition of the Italian Senate (at the time, the Senate, as the upper house of parliament, was by process elected by the wealthier citizens, but were in reality direct appointments by the king. It has been described as a sort of extended council of the crown);
The formation of a national council of experts for labor, for industry, for transportation, for the public health, for communications, etc. Selections to be made of professionals or of tradesmen with legislative powers, and elected directly to a general commission with ministerial powers.
In labor and social policy, the Manifesto calls for:
The quick enactment of a law of the state that sanctions an eight-hour workday for all workers;
The participation of workers’ representatives in the functions of industry commissions;
To show the same confidence in the labor unions (that prove to be technically and morally worthy) as is given to industry executives or public servants;
Reorganization of the railways and the public transport sector;
Revision of the draft law on invalidity insurance;
Creation of a short-service national militia with specifically defensive responsibilities;
Armaments factories are to be nationalized;
A peaceful but competitive foreign policy.
In finance, the Manifesto advocates:
A strong progressive tax on capital (envisaging a “partial expropriation” of concentrated wealth);
The seizure of all the possessions of the religious congregations and the abolition of all the bishoprics, which constitute an enormous liability on the Nation and on the privileges of the poor;
Revision of all contracts for military provisions;
The revision of all military contracts and the seizure of 85 percent of the profits therein.
Interesting, I’ve been thinking about the best way to describe the rising globalist public/private authoritarianism. Catherine Austin-Fitts uses the term Mr Global but I don’t like this phrase as it humanizes something that seems to be against humanity. I prefer instead to refer to it as Global Inc., but I was thinking of using the phrase “Corporate Fascism”.
Those definitions are the work product of extreme leftist who have never read any political literature by the founder of Fascism, Giovanni Gentile. Stalin coined the phrase during WW2…
Interesting that Fascism is defined as both far right and far left! As Orwell noted, it has become a “swear-word” that means whatever one wants it to mean.
But I think you can define it at least as a system which operates as a “public/private partnership” and which is authoritarian. Both of those things are true of the system being pushed by the Globalists.
