See fascism is just really misunderstood, as most people associate it with Nazism. However, Nazism was far more associated with the socialist, but non-Marxist movement.
The biggest difference being that Nazism, aside from the explicit militancy, anti-semitism, and Paganry was a centrally planned command economy in many respects. True fascist states like Franco’s Spain, Mussolini’s Italy, and Salazar’s Portugal while very reliant on government intervention in the economy, relied heavily on subsidiarity and Catholic Social Teaching for economic policy. Whereas the Nazis would want all the mines, for instance, reporting to a central Nazi agency for mines, a fascist state would want the mine workers unionized in association with the mine owner working together with the factory owners and workers who would use the raw materials.
If you haven’t put it together yet, “fascism” is basically 20th century mercantilism.
If we keep politics posting, maybe I can get into the importance of the fascist dispensing with democracy and why it doesn’t require concentration camps or thought police.
