[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4386455, member: 18222"] There are similarities but there are essential differences. Clearly, fascism and socialism [B]differ[/B] on many fundamental aspects. [LIST] [*][URL='http://www.differencebetween.net/miscellaneous/politics/difference-between-right-wing-and-left-wing/']Far-right vs far-left[/URL] [*]Primacy of the nation vs protection of everyone’s rights [*]Private property vs public/social ownership [/LIST] Despite their apparent opposition and the historical paths that have led to the striking contrasts between the two ideologies, socialism and fascism have important features [B]in common[/B]. [LIST] [*]They are both strong ideology [*]They both imply strong governmental involvement in economic and social life [*]They both have the power to create strong social movements [*]They both oppose free market [*]They both need a strong governmental apparatus and a strong leader [/LIST] Socialism and fascism are two strong ideologies, which have been able to create cohesive and powerful social movements. Rarely, during history, have we witnessed such influential and fast-growing social involvement and participation in political life. [LIST=1] [*]In the case of socialism, masses mobilize and support the idea of equal development, equal share of wealth, social equality, enhancement of the community, and collective values. Socialism unites masses under the umbrella of equality, not supremacy. [*]In the case of fascism, masses mobilize for the achievement of national and racial supremacy over all other countries, over all other minorities, and over all other nations. The idea of equality is alien to the fascism paradigm, while the concept of superiority is pivotal. [/LIST] [SIZE=4][B][I]In sum[/I][/B][/SIZE] Throughout history, socialism and fascism have been portrayed as opposing and contrasting all-encompassing-theories. Indeed, our recent past provides us with several examples of fascist thinking opposing social thinking, and vice versa. As we have seen, the two theories originate from opposing values: Socialism strives for an equal society, and is based on the idea of democratic ownership, and redistribution of wealth. Fascism strives for the imposition of national and racial superiority, and advocates for economic growth fostered by national companies and corporations.
