What's some literature on the relationship between anarchism and fascism?
>The anarchist origins of Italian fascism are vividly described in this multiple biography of four anarchists who demonstrated extreme individualist tendencies. Leandro Arpinati began his political career as an anarchist, but went on to lead the Bologna fascists and become Mussolini’s Minister of the Interior and the «Second Duce of Fascism.» Massimo Rocca was the extreme anarchist-individualist who goaded Mussolini into openly declaring his stance in favor of intervention in the First World War. Maria Rygier was a leader among the Bologna anarchists who reshaped the revolutionary ideas of the left in terms acceptable to the right. Torquato Nanni helped fuse the left wing of Fascism to the right wing of Bolshevism. All were friends of the young Mussolini, but were among the first to express disillusionment with fascism. By 1934, they had been arrested for «anti-fascist activities» and forced into external or internal exile. Despite Arpinati’s and Nanni’s participation in the Resistance a decade later, communist partisans assassinated them on the day of Liberation in April 1945. This book’s analysis of the motives behind their assassination leads to conclusions about the use of the Myth of the Resistance as a paradigm for government in postwar Italy. It also suggests a model by which political parties have been appended to major personalities according to the degree to which they opposed fascism.

Slim and none. Nietzsche isn’t a nazi sort. Anarchists aren’t concerned with national borders.
Anarcho-communists are more concerned with such things, but certainly don’t support any kind of centralization, much less dictatorship

Surface level nitpicks. Anarchism and fascism have the same initiatory character.

Anarchists sometimes undergo a process a bit like this
>be anarchist
>actually think about how anarchism could work
>realize property rights and hierarchical organization of labor are impossible to avoid
>end up with something resembling ancap lolbertarianism
>realize libertarianism cant work because violence
>realize a state of some sort is necessary but want it to protect individual rights as much as possible
At this point they choose fascism because the only other things they're aware of are communism and democracy which both tend to have even more annoying state infringement on personal liberty.

This is a very particular type of anarchist though. Most of them never even do the "actually think about how anarchism could work" step and actually get angry at you if you ask them about this.

At base, we have nothing there.
Superficially speaking, they look completely different.
End goals, opposed.
Historically speaking, they’ve always clashed.

Kid. The “lefty” that resembles these goose steppers more are the liberals. Look there. Look there now! The neoliberals of the world are waging a (another) proxy war with fascist troops.
There’s no anarchists doing that

neoliberalism is the only ideology that makes sense, the only one that actually enriches human nature. Lefties, Fascists and Progressives will never win

I don't believe that at all my friend. I said that it can appear less intrusive than communism or liberal democracy to people of a certain bent. I think there is an argument to be made this is true.

The freest states have been republics and feudal monarchies, but above all they have been colonies, which is more a function of central government simply being absent than anything else.

I see where you made your mistake.
At the start it should read
>be liberal
To be an anarchist we’d follow a path more like
>join friends and community to determine best practices.
>allow property (personal) for the resident, abolishing mogul/royalist property (private)
>end up with a series of democratic autonomous communities
>segment specialized authorities. Such as transportation and defense.
>protect general perimeters from roaming bands of fascists

You’re not a deep thinker. I wish you were just trolling, but probably not.
