Capitalism

What media have you been exposed to that's "liberal"? With the exception of "Air America" and a few PBS shows, the vast majority of US media (TV, radio, print) is owned, marketed, and controlled by the bastions of Capitalism, with interest only their profits and being able to control whomever is in power.

As for 'fascism', the originator of the word, Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, defined 'fascism as being a right-wing collectivistic ideology in opposition to socialism, liberalism, democracy and individualism.'

In essence, put government under the control of big business, because big B knows what's best for you and me.

Unfortunately, 'experts' have since bastardized the words meaning to fit their own agendas. For example, "Islamo-Facists". Ox and a moron.

Fascism in Italy combined elements of corporatism, totalitarianism, nationalism, militarism and anti-Communism. Fascism won support as an alternative to the unpopular liberalism of the time. It also won the support of anti-socialist Italians.

Hmmm. Sounds like what's happening in the USA doesn't it, except we deny it and pretend it's not the case.

The worst combination in the world for abuse is Business Interests and Greed COMBINED with Governmental control and authority. You put those two together and you have a bastard child born in Hell to oppress and enslave.
