I am just here waiting for the “Free Palestine” folks to show us the way with some real radical activism.

The OG fascists, with the bundle on their coat of arms, representing the uniformity of opinion held together.

One of the core characteristics of fascism - the rejection of dissent, in favor of unanimity.

Edit- totally fascinating read about the predecessor, the “Fasci Italiana di Combattimento”

Mussolini used his newspaper in 1919 to espouse an eclectic mix of "dramatic and eye-catching" proposals inspired by views from across the political spectrum, as he was "far more concerned with tactics than with ideas" and discovered that inconsistency did not bother his readers.[32] Mussolini at this time "appeared successively as champion of the League and then nationalist, as socialist and then conservative, as a monarchist and then republican" and actively wished to keep all his political options open.

(…)

In general, its stances were radically different from those of later fascism, as the early Fasci proclaimed its opposition to censorshipmilitarism and dictatorship.[23]Mussolini wrote that "we are libertarians above all, loving liberty for everyone, even for our enemies".[24] On the same occasion, he also said that freedom of thought and speech were among the "highest expressions of human civilization".[24]

Oh boy, this sounds so current…
