Fascism is the only correct way to run things, PRECISELY for these reasons. Imagine the Nazis had won WW2, would the soviets be subverting them? NOT A CHANCE. The USA? Done deal.

More top-down corruption is not what we need.

Power to the people from the bottom-up is the only fair solution - and obviously it has to anticipate that half of everyone is stupider than average and as a whole everyone is much less corrupt than the ruling class who will try to infiltrate and subvert all bottom-up efforts.

Fascism is a political philosophy that precludes top-down corruption, but it can only work well in homogeneous divisions. The bottom-up approach has the same problem: unless you have homogeneity, you have harm to a significant part of the population. So the bottom-up approach works if you have tiny (neighborhood sized) political divisions, whereas fascism codifies that which would have been voted from the bottom up into law and order. These are very close to the same thing.

    Horrux is a sincere Quebecois Nazi.

      I do not condone harm to people. Fascism is the least harmful of political systems.

      Huey Long almost saved the USA from communist subversion. He was taken out.

        Huey Long

        Was in a political office of Georgia and ran for POTUS about 90 years ago or so. Seemed to be a shoo-in for the job, but got taken out by a "LONE GUNMAN". He was a perfect Fascist, the kind that makes nations great.
