For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/El Chisme

No Fascism and Big Business by Daniel Guerin, no The Corporate State in Action: Italy under Fascism by Carl T. Schmidt, not even The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer. Mm, mm, mm. Typical.

Why is this list so heavily biased in favor of fiction? There was hardly anything ‘boring’ about actually existing fascism. Is somebody afraid that reading history books would make the links between fascism and capitalism too obvious?

They would rather you stick to your highschool history book that purposely leaves these connections as obfuscated as possible

I can also recommend Wages of Destruction by Adam Tooze.

Carl T. Schmidt

Did a doubletake upon seeing this name. Very much not to be confused with Carl Schmitt. A Jason Hickel vs. Jackson Hinkle of their time?
