Yep
S*&^ rolls downhill.
The world blames America. (Always did and will)
Amerian Liberals blame the ‘rich’. (Intellectually bankrupt and running out of OTHER scapegoats)
Socialism by nature, requires a police state to enforce redistribution of wealth.
Benito Mussolini’s father was a Communist with whom young Benito would often argue.
Young Mussolini thought his father was right that corrupt and greedy businesses should be nationalized. But Benito didn’t think *all* businessmen were corrupt and greedy. The ones who weren’t should keep their property.
He called this idea “Fascism”. Benito basically codified a tyrannical method of ruling.
But Fascism isn’t a government any more than Marriage is a type of religion. Fascism is a way of ruling.
The Fascist period of a Communist state is very short - because they nationalize everything overnight. In Nazi Germany it was a much more slow process - but eventually all property would have ended up in the hands of party bigwigs just like in Communist Russia.
