@benroyce @kingtor @Iveyline well something important to understand is that what distinguishes fascism from conservatism is that fascism opposes the status quo and is populist.

While conservatism believes in preserving the status quo and is elitist. You will find right wing ideologies before fascism were elitist rather than populist.. such as things like monarchism and all that.

Essentially a fascist wants to tear down the status quo to create a new regenerated ultra Nation while a conservative wants to preserve the status quo
