I think this thread gives a great insight into the mentality of fascists. For clarity I mean fascists in the classical sense, people who would have been supporters of Mussolini, Franco, Hitler, Pinochet, Galtieri etc.
They are paranoid and frightened, uncertain. They cannot deal with change and they want to apportion blame. They are either badly or semi-educated. They cannot accept responsibility for their own lives, so they look sideways in society to blame other people on a similar socio-economic level. It is classic fascist territory. If you take a step back, all the fascists on this thread are posting about their own lives and how depressed they are by them, things like they want to run off to another country, they want to segregate their children, look at the mad bus driver...and so on.
It is they who lack identity for themselves, personal identity/worth issues abound, so they cling to identities which are presented to them by more powerful groups/parties. For example Roman Catholicism, which had such a huge hand in the rise of European fascism, the holocaust and so on with the notion of positive Christianity which was Jew-baiting by any other name. The Pope was even in the SS, at least he could have been in the regular army .
Of course when asked they can't define those national identities because they don't actually exist. We share identities with every other nation on Earth. What is more National identity changes every day, minute, second etc.
Their grasp of history, in this case British history, is constantly referenced to some point in the past where they see some kind of perfection. They couldn't point to that either as fascists have always looked backwards. In the 1970's they said exactly the same things, in the 1930's they said exactly the same things.
The worst thing about these people can be gleaned from history. In Germany the vast majority didn't build the camps, they didn't bundle Jews, socialists, anarchists, Slavs, the disabled, gypsies, union members, teachers, academics onto trains to go to Auschwitz and Dachau. But they did allow that to happen and if push comes to shove they would allow it again. Just look at South America in the post war period where fascist juntas slaughtered hundreds of thousands, Indonesia 2-5mn dead and so on.
Nowadays it isn't cool for fascists to call themselves fascists. We live in post-fascist Europe. So since the 1970's the right have had to find new ways to spread their hate and terror, to voice their own discontent with their own lives via racist thugs, holocaust deniers and their allies in the right wing media...and here we are. Best not to forget imo.
