Nope.
But I am missing your well-rounded, solid objections. Against a previous response as to what fascism is.
Could you squeeze something out...or is it too much of a strain and a pain...to produce more than a 'Nope' ?
Nope.
Fascism is ****. I think that is about as well rounded a movement as I can make this morning.Nope.

I hardly meant it as a deep analysis. But...anal in a metaphoric sense of rigid control needs around posture which are often made central in fascist propaganda and which it seems to me inform their take on the ideals in society in general.Georgeanna wrote: ↑October 18th, 2018, 12:23 pm I was too flippant in my earlier showing of appreciation on your take on traditional fascism. It sounded clever but really isn't.
I really don't condone phrases such as ' anal male movements' - it is virtually meaningless with regard to fascism. There's much more, as can be seen, to fascist psyche and motivation to reach some ideal state.
I think you are underestimating the shallowness of many women which I think competes well with the shallowness of many men.As for their being an 'ideal man'...well. It's a romantic fiction found in Mills and Boon. Some females may swoon and dream of passionate nights held in the arms of that strong-chinned chap. Mostly, they know it's about escapism - as is any form of light entertainment.
Yeah, I don't think that woman started it, but many go along with it and send the images of what man, woman and society should look like onto others including men and children.Fascism - is not an ideal poured out of women on men.
I tend to think women are less enamoured of fascism and they tend to have less say the more fascism there is.And it isn't about men v women.
OK. But you know the particular response I was referring to ( burning ghost ) and still you avoid. I know you can do better than this and I miss that - your willingness and ability to show your substantial knowledge in a creative and stimulating way. Never mind. Perhaps you are tired.

It is a political movement that mobilises the worst primal instinct of humanity and enslaves its adherents and anathematises its objectors.
I can think of nothing worse.
Incase anyone is wondering about my earlier reference to Hobbes reply to burning ghost.ThomasHobbes wrote: ↑October 16th, 2018, 12:36 pmNope.Burning ghost wrote: ↑October 15th, 2018, 6:06 am I’ll throw one thing out there ... fascism is not the sole property of far right views. Fascism is something that manifests in both far right and far left ideologies.
Whatever Hobbes said - it is not true that there is 'nothing to see here' as edited by burning ghost. You see - on my preview - it doesn't even show up in the quote, so it looks like these are the words of Hobbes. Perhaps they were, and any bad bits were erased ?
