Is neoliberalism a "species of fascism"?

Is neoliberalism a "species of fascism"? Is it more apt to consider neoliberalism under fascist ideology, alongside social fascism social democracy, rather than under liberalism?

So by that logic everything besides socialism and anarchy is fascism?

No, it's not. Just because something uses similar economical implementions (like Social Democracy and Fascisms Corporatism) doesn't mean that there are not huge ideological differences culturally. Neoliberalism sees values and traditions as more or less obsolete, as it is mostly defined by consumerism and commercialization. Fascism is based on aesthetics, rejuvenation, anti-modernism, romanticism and violence.

You have been visited by Based Bill of Genocide Crusading! Dead pigs and anarchist socialism will come to you, but only if you post "We need a CLEANSE, people!" in this thread.

Neoliberalism isn't comparable to Fascism in spirit, ideology or politics.

All me

oops, i clicked the wrong shitposting flag

No, communism, feudalism, and slavery isn't fascism. Capitalism is latent fascism, just like fascism is capitalism in decay, but it's not fascism proper.


So, neoliberalism is economically fascist?

Exactly. Neoliberalism is individualist and valueless. Fascism at least has values and an ethos beyond making as much money as possible and telling everyone who doesn't to go die.

A what?

It's the other way round. Fascism is part of Liberalism, just like Marxism is part of Socialism.

We had this discussion almost a century ago. Though, obsession with Stirner means that some people are still stuck in 19th century.

It is.

What. No. Though, there isn't much difference, when we get to boneheads.

Marx. Basis. Superstructure.

When will you learn?

It is not comparable, because they both are the same thing.

Are being dumb on purpose? Fascism is economically liberal.

Is neoliberalism a type, form, kind of fascism?

So, fascism is a form of liberalism, not an independent ideology developed from liberalism (like socialism and communism)?

I'm pretty sure fascism has certain economic traits which aren't expressly liberal.

Drop your antiquated ideas about fascism being a political ideology. Today Fascism means something bad. Do you seriously think neoliberalism isn't bad?

The only trait that matters is [insert correct answer].

And Fascism has it in spades.

You really need to start differentiating between socio-economic systems and doctrines.

Fascism as an ideology is mostly irrelevant. It can be anything and claim anything.

It is quite obvious, that Fascism will attempt to differentiate itself from Liberalism. How can it pretend to solve anything, if it admits that it's basically the same thing that caused and perpetuated the problems in the first place? Expect a lot of weaseling around and theoretical bullshit.

It's the actual methods that matter (which is why I have no problem allying with Anarchists, despite wanting to bash their heads for being morons).

I don't disagree, but the issue is whether to consider neoliberalism a form of fascist ideology rather than liberal ideology.

>(which is why I have no problem allying with Anarchists, despite wanting to bash their heads for being morons)
And stab us in the back when we outlive their usefulness? Not a chance. Anarchists already learned that lesson from history.

As I've said - it's pants-on-head kind of taxonomy.

Why specifically neo-liberalism?
Why it's liberalism that hast to be fascist ideology, rather than vice-versa?

As the history shows, they've learned it retroactively, because they've had a nasty habit of retaliating for stabbing in the back pre-emptively.

OP, if you want to understand NeoLiberalism, the politic and economic project it presents, I recommend Harvey's book on it. It's extensive, but it's worth it.

And have this short introduction aswell. fuck off n1x
