[QUOTE="Joe, post: 522020, member: 9"] Tho they became bitter enemies/rivals, fascism & communism came from similar roots -socialism. Fascism arose in Italy after the 1st World War as a reaction by the working class against a ruling elite which had failed them in that conflict. Mussolini himself grew up poor & working class. As a young hoodlum he was part of a growing socialist movement sweeping Europe in the late 19th & 20th century. But he gravitated towards fascism instead of Marxist Socialism. Fascists actually called themselves 'socialists' as well. But it was not a benign peacefull strain like fabian socialism which wanted change through peaceful Democratic means such as parliamentary democracy. [/QUOTE]
