WHAT IS A FASCIST  STATE? HOW DO WE IDENTIFY FASCISM  AND IT’S DESTRUCTIVE POWERS OF HUMANITY?

 

   GEORGE Jackson states in his book BLOOD IN MY EYE” chapter Classes at War, Mobilization and Contra-mobilization page 141. “Enough time has passed now since the emergence of Fascism,  the extreme crisis that precipitated it, and the hostilities that caused its early development to view it with loess of the coloring that sensationalism and war propaganda necessarily create.  We should now be able , after Thai has somewhat dulled the traumatic exchanges of debate and struggle, to analyze Fascism objectively-its antecedents, its prime characteristics and its goals.  In denying its ideological importance I am not suggesting that all of its advocates (of the especially early period) were opportunist or deranged individuals reacting to a personal threat to their own situation with the society.  A great many of the early fascist intellectuals were responding to a very real social situation.  As intelligentsia, keepers of the particular nation’s system of values, art forms and political thought, they felt it was their responsibility to attempt to resolve a growing social problem.  My insistence upon the no importance of ideology.  Weight is given to this observation by the fact that early fascism included an amalgam of expressionists, anarchy-syndicalism, futurists, Hegelian idealists,  theoretical syndicalism, nationalists and , in the case of the Spanish Falange, intellectual anarchists.”

In understanding the last 4 years of our country and especially 2020, we see up close and personal what Fascism is, an administrative office of Power that oppresses its own people.  “We have to make the world see that the problem that we’re confronted with is a problem for Humanity.” Malcolm El Haji Shabazz
