Fascism
Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology that prioritizes the nation"and often a specific race"above individual rights.
According to a consensus on Reddit by political scientists like Robert Paxton, fascism is marked by an obsession with national decline, a cult of unity and purity, and the use of mass parties to dismantle democratic liberties through violence.
Core Characteristics
Dictatorial Leadership: Power rests in a single autocratic leader who commands absolute obedience and operates outside the rule of law.
Extreme Nationalism: The state promotes aggressive national or racial supremacy, often targeting minorities, immigrants, or political dissidents as scapegoats.
Militarism and Violence: Force and military power are glorified as tools to purge perceived internal corruption and achieve national rebirth.
Suppression of Opposition: Democratic norms, pluralism, a free press, and individual liberties are systematically dismantled via censorship and police power.
