Not really, the world of Starship troopers is more akin to an aristocratic republic where the ability to vote is dependent on military service.

it was fasces, from the Latin for the bundle of sticks that were used to beat people, not the bundle of wood that you use for fuel in a fire. i'm not amenable to fascism either, but i also don't make shit up on the internet about it and feel proud.

Doctrine of fascism is childish though. Mussolini used to be Marxist and literally the only counter argument he has to it is that "muh marxism doesn't believe heroes dictate history" and that corporatism is good because of this. He was a complete brainlet only surpassed by Hitler. Notice that Stalin has some 16 volumes of philosophical work, Mussolini has a few and many articles because he was marxist and Hitler only has an autobiography. Fascism is literally a neuro-degenerative disease.

Ah, I see you inhabit the dustbin of ideology, Nazism. Reminder that Mussolini, the creator of fascism, didn't believe in Hitler's retarded jewish conspiracies and refused to deport Italian jews to Germany. Was Mussolini, the creator of fascism, also a jewish puppet?

Childish liberalism. I will not be talking to you anymore.

>>11413999
Well so what. Fact is the creator of Hitler's ideology wasn't an anti-Semite, which under schizo nazi logic makes him pro-semite and therefore nazism is semite. Furthermore, the Balfour declaration was just yet another form of imperialism instigated by Britain. Maybe if Mussolini and Hitler actually had a braincell between them, they stop blaming all their problems on specific groups of people and glorifying imperialism, and focus their rage on dismantling capitalism. But they didn't because they were theorylet liberals.
