"Fascism is statism run amok" isn't even conservative propaganda; it's plutocratic and anarcho-libertarian propaganda.
That Mussolini quote is from a speech delivered after he had embarked upon his very public effort to transform the Kingdom of Italy into a "Fascist State."
European fascists saw the state as yet another tool for their movement, which was embodied by the Leader and his Party.
Fascism's relationship with the state has been one of tension, even where fascists achieved power, as the State was forced to compete with Party institutions.
The conservative stance on fascism has always been, "It's good so long as it attacks liberals and leftists (who are crypto-communists anyways) and doesn't hurt my Bottom Line."
Churchill and a handful of other conservative statesmen breaking with that has fooled a lot of people.
they saed we wolde be free
that we was tacan bac our own
that the healan haus wolde be unbroc
aglitter agan with riches and hop
that lic a sun cum risan a proud folc
scruggan off the furrin yeoc
they sæd we wolde be free
sæd them lies to yu
saed them lies to me

Swift and lethal as a jaguar’s kiss, the mysterious Brotherhood of Assacyclists has no allies on the battlefields of Britain—only clients and victims.

Following the Royal Navy’s bombardment of Aberstwyth and the burning of the National Library, the Free Wales Army has escalated its insurgency against Lord Protector Boris‘s regime.
Costa, Greggs, Oliver Bonas and other luxury ration stores are favored FWA targets.
Fascism erodes or destroys state power in order to produce situations of lawlessness or anarchy wherein fascists are the biggest gang on the block and can do whatever they like to whomever they like.
Know why the Fascists were invited to take power in Italy?
It was because Fascist gangs were literally taking over towns, attacking leftists, & raiding the countryside while blaming it on “Reds.”
Fascists claim to be the “law ‘n’ order” answer to lawlessness they help create.
Seems to me that Jeremy Corbyn is probably an unconscious anti-Semite. I'd wager he genuinely doesn't consider himself an anti-Semite, doesn't recognize anti-Semitism when he sees it, and deals in anti-Semitic tropes whose only aspects he comprehends are the anti-capitalist bits.
Cries of "anti-Semitism!" over that video of him are a reach. But what prompts such wariness?
The fact that Corbyn is steeped in a conspiratorial anti-Semitic milieu (Google his brother Piers), defends anti-Semites, & rehabilitates anti-Semites under the guise of "anti-Zionism."
The late Moishe Postone, a brilliant Marxist academic at U. Chicago, wrote much about left anti-Semitism and reactionary anti-imperialism. He noticed the revival of anti-Semitism on the left as a "pseudo-emancipatory anti-capitalism," which is, after all, a very old story.
