Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

You mistook Fascism for Nazism. Especially flag is a Nazi symbol

And you know what that bundle of sticks is called in Latin? Fascis. That's where the name comes from.

Also, nationalsocialism is just one of plenty forms of fascism. It's an umbrella term. And arguing that a poster warns of the wrong sect of genocidal nationalist dictatorship, is just absolutely beyond any kind brain rot.

Yes, what about it?

Also, nationalsocialism is just one of plenty forms of fascism

National Socialism was in Germany, perpetrated by Hitler, Fascism was in Italy, perpetrated by Mussolini. Every semi decent historian will tell you that

Every historian better than half decent will also tell you that those two systems of government were closely related (totalitarian political violence).

True, but also they had significant differences - one was that German Nazis were fixated around race, while Italian Fascists weren't.

Second difference is that Italian Fascizm murdered much less people.

You just can't ignore that

so are saying that there is no situation in with it is beneficial to be able to group these dangerous warmongering ideologies under a blanket term like right now when so many with "slight differences" that are gaining steam right now. it's not the slight differences we care about, is the shared hatred and warmongering and nationalism.

or are you just trying to defend Italian fascism as not being problematic?

"slight differences"

First: I don't believe difference between Nazi Racism and Fascist Nationalism is slight as these ideologies had vastly different numbers of victims, second: I care for factual representation of history

it's not the slight differences we care about

You should care about them, because those who don't know the history are bound to repeat it. Generalization of ideas is bad, it both prevents proper communication, and it's a source of most horrible ideologies.

or are you just trying to defend Italian fascism

Or right, now I'm accused of supporting fascizm. You can't even have normal discussion about these topics these days.

Tell me you don't understand the term "umbrella term" means, without telling me you don't understand

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm not aware of any mid 1930s National Socialists calling themselves Fascists, nor Italian Fascists calling themselves National Socialists.

The "umbrealla term" seems to be invented later for... well why exactly?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

For right-wing nationalistic authocracities. How parties label themselves often contradicts with what they stand for

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

Depends on what your historical question is. In most cases, this difference of degree wouldn't matter.

One Thing I've learned is not to trust semi decent historians. They tend to oversimplify things a lot
