Fascism, is totalitarian, and the Fascist State a
synthesis and a unit inclusive of all values. The Fascist conception of life stresses the importance of the State and accepts the individual only in so far as his interests coincide with those of the State, which stands for the conscience and the universal, will of man as a historic entity.

they are straight up chickenhawk warmongers
they believed that war and battle brought out the most of human energy and development, and was the most expansive way to agitate growth

there is no end game with them, and in fact, I'm assuming they would strictly be anti-totalitarian, because that means there's no other group for them to do battle with

Fascism, the more it considers and observes the future and the development of humanity quite apart from political considerations of the moment, believes neither in the possibility nor the utility of perpetual peace. It thus repudiates the doctrine of Pacifism -- born of a renunciation of the struggle and an act of cowardice in the face of sacrifice. War alone brings up to its highest tension all human energy and puts the stamp of nobility upon the peoples who have courage to meet it. All other trials are substitutes, which never really put men into the position where they have to make the great decision -- the alternative of life or death....

...The Fascist accepts life and loves it, knowing nothing of and despising suicide: he rather conceives of life as duty and struggle and conquest, but above all for others -- those who are at hand and those who are far distant, contemporaries, and those who will come after...

...Fascism is the complete opposite of…Marxian Socialism, the materialist conception of history of human civilization can be explained simply through the conflict of interests among the various social groups and by the change and development in the means and instruments of production.... Fascism, now and always, believes in holiness and in heroism; that is to say, in actions influenced by no economic motive, direct or indirect. And if the economic conception of history be denied, according to which theory men are no more than puppets, carried to and fro by the waves of chance, while the real directing forces are quite out of their control, it follows that the existence of an unchangeable and unchanging class-war is also denied - the natural progeny of the economic conception of history. And above all Fascism denies that class-war can be the preponderant force in the transformation of society....

After Socialism, Fascism combats the whole complex system of democratic ideology, and repudiates it, whether in its theoretical premises or in its practical application. Fascism denies that the majority, by the simple fact that it is a majority, can direct human society; it denies that numbers alone can govern by means of a periodical consultation, and it affirms the immutable, beneficial, and fruitful inequality of mankind, which can never be permanently leveled through the mere operation of a mechanical process such as universal suffrage....

...Fascism denies, in democracy, the absurd conventional untruth of political equality dressed out in the garb of collective irresponsibility, and the myth of "happiness" and indefinite progress

>and accepts the individual only in so far as his interests coincide with those of the State
It's not an antagonistic relationship, (in theory) rather it is these individual characters that are a mechanistic function of the form the state takes. i.e if the duce is a dickhead and you overthrow him and take his place that is the new of the state. It's an oak tree constantly changing it's forms.

If you read early Marinetti, it was pretty clear he was a Nietzsche fan boy. He even wrote about his love for Nietzsche in his diary I believe.

The futurist doctrine was hyper Nietzscheanism. Marinetti took Nietzscheanism to its most hedonistic extreme and this had a great influence of the core philosophies of Fascism.

No. Nietzsche was anti-nationalist. There is no definition of fascism that doesn't describe it as hypernationalist.

And I'm unsure you know what the word hedonism means. Fascism is all about self-sacrifice and renouncing comfort for militant self-discipline for the good of the state.

Some say fascism is capitalism in decay, as on socioeconomic level it represents an alliance of corporate and traditional elites who need to prevent social unrest by directing the public against constructed external enemies, or internal social parasites.

I am not denying that he was influential, I am saying that he was an artist and a provocateur and his "alliance" with fascism was brief and barely lasted a year.
Marinetti didn't have a "philosophy" he was an artist and a poet. If you want fascist philosophy read Gentile, Sorel and Spirito's works. For the latter you're going to have to go through secondary sources like A James Gregor because there is no english translation of his work.

No you posted one quote from a futurist poet, and you posted one excerpt from the doctrine of fascism that simply argues that pacifism for it's own sake is stupid.

Using an ambiguous concept like "good" is empty and houses your projections.
"Good" wasn't brought into the description of fascism, that's what you're trying to assert.

Mussolini glorying war and saying great for development should tell you plenty about what fascists were "pro", and what they thought was virtuous.
Is that close enough to "good" for you?

Your claim is

>Excessive war is hedonism, especially when your very doctrine treats war as the ultimate good and ontological driver of your society.
Admitting there are positive elements of war is not the same as asserting it is the "ultimate good" or that it is the only driver of the society.

In fascist thought supposed dichotomies like state and individual, war and peace are inseperable and in part of a synthesis. One literally cannot exist without the other.

And EVEN with all this said, just because Mussolini said something doesn't mean that we have to listen to Mussolini. Mussolini said a lot of things.

>Some still ask of us: what do you want? We answer with three words that summon up our entire program. Here they are…Italy, Republic, Socialization. . .Socialization is no other than the implantation of Italian Socialism…
This was in 1944, are we going to ditch the corporatist model and now switch ownership of the means of production to the workers? (Many fascists wanted to do this)
Are we going to track down every last word that Mussolini said, up until his last breath so we can have the truest form of fascism?
What is this fucking idea that we have to follow everything that which is said by MUSSOLINI who was not even the philosopher of fascism but rather a leader of a state?
Again one of the core tenants of fascism is that it doesn't have an absolute doctrine that is meant to be followed word by word like Marxism.
Fascism is a merger of Italian Idealism, Nationalism and Syndicalism. If we decide war will do more harm than good, then there will be no war. If we decide to be pacifists then we will be pacifists. (there were pacifist members of the BuF)
Whether you are pro or anti war has nothing to do with how "fascisty" you are.

So fascists didn't exalt war? they just wrote about it glowingly and actively participated in the most destructive war in human history... and Mussolini wasn't an important enough figure within fascism to have any sort of defining impact on it? And a fascism doctrine didn't exist? yet Mussolini et al wrote multiple preliminary declarations? And none of it counts because in 1944 after the fascists had already lost the war, they changed their mind on some of their earlier views?

Sounds like you have it all worked out there my man, definitely bullet proof logic... Keep me posted...

This is not an argument, but only moral faggotry, everyone participated in the war.
>Mussolini wasn't an important enough figure within fascism to have any sort of defining impact on it?
>And a fascism doctrine didn't exist
I simply said that Mussolini is not the authority of what Fascism is and isn't. The doctrine of fascism is that fascism is ORGANIC and state conception of it is bound to change.
>yet Mussolini et al wrote multiple preliminary declarations?
What?
>in 1944 after the fascists had already lost the war, they changed their mind on some of their earlier views?
What views did they change their mind on do you even know? The fascists were nkt followers of the same thought, among them there were conservatives, monarchists, socialists, syndicalists. Mussolini himself was a former anarchist until he was kicked out of the socialist party for having interventionist views in the first world war (a view that wasn't uncommon for then anarchists)

mosley had an anti interventionist stance long before hitler was even relevant in politics, this stance continued when he was head of the british union of fascists.
he started off as a conservative, then joined labor (then left because their economics were too laissez-faire for him lul)
>He warns nations that buying cheaper goods from other nations may sound appealing but ultimately ravage your domestic industry and lead to large unemployment as seen in the 30s. Mosley in regards to free trade argues that they are trying to "challenge the 50-year-old system of free trade which exposes industry in the home market to the chaos of world conditions, such as price fluctuation, dumping, and the competition of sweated labour, which result in the lowering of wages and industrial decay.

Anyway every single argument made so far against fascism is war propaganda tier and idiots saying
>SEE, MUSSOLINI SAID WAR SHOWS YOU WHAT PEOPLE ARE MADE OF, FASCISM IS AN IDEOLOGY OF WAR AND ONLY WAR
And then any response I made is suddenly shit on because apparently since musso wrote something and he is my duce, I have to get on my knees and suck his cock.
Now that people stopped responding it seems I've made my point, though at what cost? Hours of wasting time shit flinging about what fascism is and isn't.
I don't want to do this anymore, i'd have a better time preaching to a crowd in the street.
