Churchill was actually a huge fan of fascism 馃槖

[edit]

He got better. Orwell might be a better fit for conservatist but not counter revolutionary. This is from Wikiquote

Italy has shown that there is a way of fighting the subversive forces which can rally the masses of the people, properly led, to value and wish to defend the honour and stability of stabilized society. She has provided the necessary antidote to the Russian poison. Hereafter no great nation will be unprovided with an ultimate means of protection against the cancerous growth of Bolshevism...

What a man! I have lost my heart! ... If I were Italian, I am sure I would have been with you entirely from the beginning of your victorious struggle against the bestial appetites and passion of Leninism. ... Your movement has rendered a service to the whole world. The greatest fear that ever tormented every Democratic or Socialist leader was that of being outbid or surpassed by some other leader more extreme than himself. It has been said that a continual movement to the Left, a kind of fatal landslide toward the abyss, has been the character of all revolutions. Italy has shown that there is a way to combat subversive forces.

Discussion regarding referring to Anti-Fascism as a decentralised movement?

[edit]

I thought it might be appropriate, given it is a goal or mode of operation for many groups to enact. Given there is no "antifa", it is normally organised locally and specifically in response to fascist movements. KeebisBored (talk) 09:38, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
