War is aesthetic up until you die. In Iraq we have big posters of fighters who were killed literally everywhere like pic related. I mean literally thousands, plastered on walls and streets. Like a small commemoration of sacrifice and basically the only thing they leave behind.

Fascism is the aesthecization of politics, not violence.

Italian fascists are more about aestheticizing violence. It was a core element in futurism, the Arditi, and the Squadstri. Violence was glorified above all other things. In fact, Mussolini was relatively peaceful by Fascist standards, with the other fascists being even more violent and wanting no coalitions with the King or the Socialists.

Hitler and the Hitlerist Nazis tended to be artsy types that wanted to paint or build a pure, perfect Germany, almost as if the country is a piece of art. Violence was just a means to the end for the Nazis. Violence was THE end for the Fascists.
