The Italian fascists took the military idea from the Roman Empire,( Combattimento ) and the USA is going thru a similar process like the fall of the Roman Empire, but the actual government of the UsA is not equal to the Italian Fascism or the German Nazism, and the characteristic mentioned by the left-wingers already existed before the emerge of fascism, and the Soviet Union is included too, indeed the Soviet empire was racist, xenophobic, colonial, and warmonger, but it was not fascist or nazis either, brutal violence is not exclusive of the fascists or the nazis, it is a proper distinction of the capitalist society and the capitalist state is violent. The USA, Japanese, British and French empires were/are racists, warmongers, xenophobic, and homophobic
The Nazis salute did not come from the Roman Empire , it existed in other cultures before Fascism and Nazism, despite being often called a “Roman salute,” the Nazi salute did not originate from ancient Rome and there is no evidence that such a gesture was used by the Romans; historians believe the gesture likely originated from 19th-century art depicting Roman scenes, particularly Jacques-Louis David’s painting “The Oath of the Horatii” which featured a raised arm gesture, and was later adopted by Fascist leaders like Mussolini and then Hitler.
The book cited by DJP is very good, and we are going thru that process when reading and trying to get self educated is been thrown away,, culture are been rejected and denigrated, I grew up under a different environmental where we were bibliophile, we loved cultures, the renaissance, the enlightenment, , before the emerge of online school we already had the discipline to educate ourselves thru correspondence schools because reading was our hobby, and the reading of Marx and Engels gave us better political and social education, it was a new world of new ideas. Those days are gone, I hope young peoples take the same road again, and bookstores and libraries become popular again
Ideology are the prevailing ideas that prevail in a class society, and the prevailing idea in our society is the bourgeois ideology, and most ideology has their origin from an economic base, and fascism/nazism was a form adopted by capitalism in Germany and Italy, and it worked in Germany and it produces beneficial consequences for the German capitalist class, but those economical conditions do not exist in our time, instead of burning books, we need more books, although sometimes bookstores is not the only solution because Buenos Aires is surrounded by bookstores and workers fell in the trap of anarcho capitalism, and it is not a new movement, it started before the presidency of Muaricio Macri, even more, Domingo Peru flirted with Nazism
Fascist and Nazis were completely defeated and overthrown by eternal forces, ( included those that continue repeating the same nazis scare ) and it emerged under a weak economic infrastructure, in our time with the establishing of strong capitalist limited democracy the capitalist do not need fascism, and rightwing movement can not be associated with fascism/nazism, and at the present time right wingers are very popular among the ranks of the working class, millions of workers love them, and they have established the cult of the leadership.
The article written by Adam about fascism is not his exclusive idea either, even more, some Trostkyists writers have had the same ideas but they continue defending the concept of the dictatorship of the party to lead. There is a book review of one of them in the SPGB/WSM website, but that is the best definition of Fascism/nazism
—This guy does not have any limit on his imperial king ambitions. Now, he wants to take over Gaza and displace all the Palestinians
The Maoists can write and say whatever they want, they are all wrong.
The asiatic mode of production was described by Marx in this notebooks. The Institute of Marxism-Leninism of Moscow did not dig into them because they describe the same society that they were defending in the Soviet Union and around the whole world

So the collision was nothing to do with diversity after all….

Only idiots and imbeciles can believe that
The helicopters pilots were white women and highly trained
More than 75% of the Air controllers are white men and white women
The secretary of defense is a white man who replaced a black man with a long military career and the other one was a newsman and a torturer in Guantanamo Bay prisons,
Most Air controllers employees received an email proposal to quit or be fired
The same pretext used during WW 2 at the airforce with the black pilots and they became the best P-51 pilots and now they want to erase them from the books of history and all the reforms and gains obtained by the civil rights movement. Jim Crow is back again, and the precedent separated but equal is back again too

That is volume no, 5 which some of his military writings. He recognized that state capitalism existed in China
The whole Chinese revolution was a peasant revolution, and the main objective of that process was toward a land reform like the Bolsheviks and most third world peasant revolution including the Mexican Zapatas revolution, and the cuban revolution.
Guerrilla warfare is the way to take control of the state and the economic base, like Castroism and Guevaraism, Ernesto Che Guevara was a Maoist who advocated for a society without monetary system.
Maoism is chinese peasant nationalism
Feudalism never existed in China, or Asia, it only existed in Japan but it was also different to European feudalism, China was based on the Asiatic despotic mode of production, similar to Russia state capitalism
Enver Hoxha called Mao and Maoism the new Chinese Confucius, There is not any Marxist phraseology on Maoism which is different to Lenin, and Stalin, Trotsky permanent revolution could have been applied to China too,
Maoism ramifications is more than Mao Red book, and the Three World Theory is the culmination of Mao Tse Tung thought which was an anti marxist theory propagated as a Marxist conception and negated by the supporters of the gangs of five and they were saying that they overthrown by a coup
Maoism was very popular in Latin America because it is third world theory and some organization rejected Castroism in order to adopt Maoism, when they applied the third word theory to Chile and others dictatorship there was a split and Albania took a big chunk of the Maoist movement.
One benefits of the Chinese revolution was the creation of the Institute of foreign language which allows them to publish and propagate the works of Marx and Engels and the printing was very affordable, and China books and periodical was their main distributor
I had read that article but it does not cover everything about the so called Mao Tse Tung thought. This book written by a Leninist known as Enver Hoxha cover more about Mao Tse Tung. We must read both sides, the red book of quotations of Mao is not enough, his five volume of collected works include more, it is like just reading one or two pamphlets of Lenin, even more, most Leninists have not read Lenin either

https://www.marxists.org/history/erol/ncm-5/red-dawn.htm
The three world theory was developed by Mao Tse Tung and it is part of the so called Mao Tse Tung thought and it was the foundation of several Maoist parties around the world and members had to study that theory, in the same way that What is to be donde was the foundation of most Leninist party
I do not think that Fascism is going to be established in the USA, or in any established limited capitalist democracy like England, France, or Germany.
The left-wingers ( Stalinists and Trotskyists ) see fascists/nazis all over the earth. and they have been singing the same lyrics for several years,( post fascism ) but they have been approving the vanguard party to lead since it was created by the Bolsheviks, and they have supported third world” dictators for several decades.
Fascism was a form adopted in Germany and Italy in order to manage capitalism, like state capitalism was a form adopted in Russia in order to manage capitalist development
In our time racism, authoritarian governments, xenophobia, homofophia, and wars are considered as elements of fascism, and those characteristic are totally wrong, that is not fascism or nazism, those elements existed before the emerge of fascism in Italy and Germany. Austerity plans and monetarism is not fascism either
The Socialist Party has explained very clearly what fascism really is
The government of Donald Trump is not going to take the USA toward a fascist society, some of the measures that he is carrying were already implemented by prior administrations, even more, the massive deportation bill was also approved by the Democratic Party, the war in Ukraine was started and finance by the Democratic Party and the massacre in Gaza was also approved and financed by the Democratic Party, both parties have approved bipartisanship bills in detriment of the working class

Before the DC Plane Crash, Lawmakers Expanded Flight Traffic
BY
FREDDY BREWSTER LOIS PARSHLEY DAVID SIROTA
Months before last night’s fatal aircraft collision, lawmakers dismissed safety warnings and approved an airline-backed measure that increased flight traffic at Washington, DC’s already overstressed airport — the site of the disaster.The most reactionary and nationalistic people I’ve met have also been of the lumpenproletariat.

With the new anti communist wave that is emerging now, we must be careful, many workers are the first ones that are supporting the capitalist class
———————————————————-
The best example is Argentina. a country with a large tradition of working class struggles, a lot of leftwing organizations of all kind of tendencies including anarchists, many socialists theoreticians, socialists bookstores, workers who have taken over factories, workers who opposed brutal dictatorships, military juntas, tortures, but workers put aside all those struggles and fell in the trap of the so called anarch capitalists, and all the social democrats reforms have been reversed,( it was the same situation in Brazil.) It is pure masochism and they knew the consequences and now the whole society is suffering the consequencesOn several occasions I saw workers electing carpenters, bricklayers, tailors, and masonry workers as senators, majors, and governors, and the candidates of the rich class were completely rejected, and the youngsters had more advanced conceptions, most young peoples were reading Marx and Engels, now the situation is the opposite, there are not any serious discussions, too much ideological emptiness, they are reading comics books, in the USA they are reading the collected works of Donald Trump
The same left-wingers prepared the conditions or paved the way for the emerge of the right wingers reactionary, and workers have rejected them completely, but now they are coming back again to elect the same old groups, it is like a clock pendulum, oscillation from one side into another without any solutions, without any new road, and there is a better alternative which is socialism.
Years back rightwingers need tanks, rifles, and coup d’etats in order to take control of the state, and there was a great opposition against them, now easily they are elected and they have a large support within the ranks of the working class, and they do not care if they are criminals, oligarchs, , crooks or anti workers, they are welcome, as long as the are racists, xenophobic, nationalists and anti establishment, but the real establishment is capitalism and they do not oppose capitalism either
Workers act in a much better way when the left-wingers have prevailed within the whole society and they do not have too much anti communist sentiments like in the USA, where communism is like a capital sin, and now is even worse than before, and even more, workers are willing to denounce peoples with certain leftwing conception, it is a dangerous situation, many lumpenproletariat are dangerous. Personally, I am very careful with them
It is pathetic that more than 77 millions workers approved all these nonsenses against other workers, and against the poor workers to satisfy the needs of the rich class. This type of movement is spreading thru the whole world
It was known in advance that all these actions were going to take place, and more are coming, but many workers have apathy and they do not care, and the so called opposition is practically dead
They are just testing to see how far they can violate all the constitutional precedents, to violate all the so called laws, they are going to eliminate all the reforms that were obtained during the civil rights movement, showing that the legal system is like toilet paper
Karl Marx over estimated the taking of class consciousness by the world working class, in our time millions of workers are supporting their own exploiters, in my entire life I had never seen anything like this before.
More struggles between the capitalists for world market, more import duties, in this case on semiconductors. Mexico is also building a big factory of semiconductors and a big factory on electric cars from China from BYD which is the biggest competitor of Tesla

As a native asked the Trump during his first term when he said immigrants must go:“So when are you leaving?”
————————————————————————————–
In this statement from the Natives Americans: North, South and Central America, they are providing support to the emigrants and they see a parallelism between them and the emigrants. They are saying that nobody is illegal on stolen lands. They are already again persecuting the Apaches, and Navajos
Yes, I did, and there was an international club for hand written correspondence, and I met several peoples too, and some peoples fell in love that way too, and they got married. Handwriting is an art that is the main purpose of caligraphy

The inter capitalist frictions already have started. Some countries in Latin America have rejected the landing of US military airplanes carrying emigrants and they were sent back, and Trump has imposed tariff on Colombia.
