It’s the same kids, or their younger brothers (or their sons in some cases) that were hammerskins trying to sexy up their neo-fascism with anarchist rhetoric. They’ll pull out all the stops trying to convince you otherwise, but the connection between nationalist anarchists and other groups like NSM is so obvious their claims are laughable. I think there’s about a dozen of these fuckers total.*
*(guessing, but from a vague memory of reading about it, so it’s an educated guess, not an attempt at demonization. I left that part to calling them fuckers.)
Ha, I forgot about Hammerskins. Ironically there’s this bar/club around here that ended up becoming a “Hammerskins,” the irony , to my surprise, is that years prior The Casualties played there (before they totally sucked) and things were getting “out of hand.”
EDIT: Had to look this up, name is actually Hammerheads, but their logo looked pretty R.A.C. to me.
Fascism from how i understand it, italian fascism. Is actually a merger between private and public. It is when the the state restricts competition and operates a business but within a private framework, ie for profit and sometimes even amongst competition at times. So anarcho-fascism could technically never exist by that definition of fascism.
People of the time apparently started to associate the term fascism with nazi’ism, at the time fascism was more popular than socialism. Which is what nazi’ism was actually practising, totalitarian socialism. But when fascism came synonymous with Mussolini and nazi’ism all the countries that were using at the time, from south America to Europe. They all changed to fabian socialism. Which was all about democracy and then the new enemy became communism. To put it basically.
So in some ways fascism in an economic and political sense got labelled with the racism and dictatorship brush. When realy it was just a different type of government system. Which was unfortunate enough to have such evil and despotic people as Mussolini use it. People get very annoyed with me when i point all this out, especially when i call nazi’ism totalitarian socialism, because that is essentially what current modern day western government practice, totalitarian socialism but there is still aspect of fascism left in today’s political systems or governments.
