Subject: RE: BS: Are we still having fun as Fascists Yet
"The compelling virtue of fascism is that it imposes order, which in the face of trying times can be incredibly attractive." The loss of that imposed order with its attendant safety and full employment probably accounts for some Europeans' dismay and discontent since their country went 'democratic'. I'm thinking specifically of Poland. They're having a hard time, judging by my friends' reactions.

I had read the 'official' definition and description of fascism. What I was looking for, Amos, was the view as seen by the believers. Even Nazism had its rah rah section.
