re: #140 Dark_Falcon

I agree and to be fair the article does make clear that America stopped loving Il Duce after he invaded Ethiopia. It also has an interesting mention of the monument to Italo Balbo in Chicago, based around a column from a Greek-style temple in Italy donated by Balbo to commemorate him and his seaplanes flight from Italy for the 1934 World’s Fair.

True. I just think Goldberg is engaging in revisionism. I will agree with you and Goldberg too that fascism does differ from traditional conservatism. But he’s dishonest to call it a leftist ideology. He just is. He points to Will Rogers praising Mussolini. There are generous quotes towards Mussolini by no less Churchill.
