I would like to dispell the myth of an islamo-fascist culture.
The melding of the islam and fascism is an invention of Fox news and seems to be making inroads into popular culture. I have a problem with this as it is extremely misleading.
Ok we will start with the Oxford dictionary definition of fascism,"extreme totalitarian right-wing nationalist movement or philosophy"
And this is what Benito Mussilini said of fascism,"Fascism is the marriage of right wing government with corporate interests."
Now with those two fascism definitions we are forced to see the islamic movement for what it is, an Islamic- fundamentalist movement, which Oxford define fundamentalism as,"strict adhereance to traditional religious beliefs"
We are the only fascist movement right now, having a full fledged right wing government that is melded with corporate interests. I would like to hear an inteligent argument that we in the U.S. aren't fascist, an Islam is but I don't think that is possible.
One more thing is that Nazi's were not fascist either but rather National-socialist.
This countries educational system is a joke and that is why propoganda like the "islamo-fascist" term, can gain creedence over time.
