Fascist Quotes

“Political tags — such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth — are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire. The former are idealists acting from highest motives for the greatest good of the greatest number. The latter are surly curmudgeons, suspicious and lacking in altruism. But they are more comfortable neighbors than the other sort.”
― Robert A. Heinlein

“It is better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep.”
― Benito Mussolini

“When it comes to anti-fascism in most of Western Europe, there would appear for now to be a supply-and-demand problem: the demand for fascists vastly outstrips the actual supply.”
― Douglas Murray, The Strange Death of Europe: Immigration, Identity, Islam

“Cacopardo stepped back, and raised his hand in a Fascist salute. Then, as his aged memory functioned, the hand wavered over to his forehead, and the salute became military. And he said: "Cacopardo is sulphur and sulphur is Cacopardo.”
― John Hersey, A Bell for Adano

“[Professor Greene's] reaction to GAMAY, as published in the Yale Daily News, fairly took one's breath away. He fondled the word "fascist" as though he had come up with a Dead Sea Scroll vouchsafing the key word to the understanding of God and Man at Yale. In a few sentences he used the term thrice. "Mr. Buckley has done Yale a great service" (how I would tire of this pedestrian rhetorical device), "and he may well do the cause of liberal education in America an even greater service, by stating the fascist alternative to liberalism. This fascist thesis . . . This . . . pure fascism . . . What more could Hitler, Mussolini, or Stalin ask for . . . ?" (They asked for, and got, a great deal more.)

What survives, from such stuff as this, is ne-plus-ultra relativism, idiot nihlism. "What is required," Professor Greene spoke, "is more, not less tolerance--not the tolerance of indifference, but the tolerance of honest respect for divergent convictions and the determination of all that such divergent opinions be heard without administrative censorship. I try my best in the classroom to expound and defend my faith, when it is relevant, as honestly and persuasively as I can. But I can do so only because many of my colleagues are expounding and defending their contrasting faiths, or skepticisms, as openly and honestly as I am mine."

A professor of philosophy! Question: What is the 1) ethical, 2) philosophical, or 3) epistemological argument for requiring continued tolerance of ideas whose discrediting it is the purpose of education to effect? What ethical code (in the Bible? in Plato? Kant? Hume?) requires "honest respect" for any divergent conviction?”
― William F. Buckley Jr., God and Man at Yale: The Superstitions of 'Academic Freedom'

“Between a stupid fascist and an intelligent fascist, prefer the intelligent one, because there is always a chance to persuade the clever one about the mistakes of his actions! There is no such a chance for stupid and ignorant fascist!”
― Mehmet Murat ildan

“No, I am not imagining a book-burning, warmongering, anti-intellectual fascist regime – in my plan, there is no place for re ghters who light up the Homers and Lady Murasakis and Cao Xueqins stashed under your bed – because, for starters, I’m not banning literature per se. I’m banning the reading of literature. Purchasing and collecting books and other forms of literature remains perfectly legitimate as long as you don’t peruse the literature at hand.”
― Kyoko Yoshida

“Finally, and fundamentally, didn’t he, who was honest and open, smell the foul odor of Fascist truths that were polluting the sky, didn’t he find it disgraceful that a thinking man should be asked to believe without thinking? Didn’t he feel disgust for all the dogmas, all the unproved declarations, all the imperatives”
― Primo Levi, The Periodic Table

“When rich people are pushing communism, you know what you are really facing is fascism.”

“When The Nation Regresses (Sonnet 2210)

Letter to the rest of the world -
for the first time in over 200 years,
US is proudly regressing to its primitive origins,
now is the time to take stock of your strengths within -

your domestic brains, your domestic backbones,
and wield, empower and apply them most vehemently -
now is the time you fly higher than ever, without sam,
because big brother has turned into a drunken uncle.

And to those living within these shores of liberty,
who still have their senility intact, I say -
you might not have had the honor to fight nazis,
but now is the time you resist with your life.

It's not a free country, it's a free jungle,
where predators roam free abusing the marginalized.
If you don't stand up now on the right side of life,
not human, not alive, you are undead - uncivilized.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper

“There is a fascist way of being antifascist, is a reflection that arises from seeing how, often, the accusation of being fascist is used, in the most varied contexts. as a low-key dialectical argument to close a discussion for which one has no case.
Perhaps it is because when all one is capable of doing is opposing an idea one ends up representing that same idea in the mirror.”
― Luigina Sgarro

“World you won the war against Man called Hitler But You lost the War against His ideology.
He's still alive in different faces with different Name”
― Mohammed Zaki Ansari, "Zaki's Gift Of Love"

“Con tutto il paese blindato in casa per fermare l'epidemia, quelle tre ridevano mentre aspettavano di fare la spesa. Una addirittura a un certo punto ha tirato fuori il telefonino e ha detto: "Facciamoci un selfie". Non so come siano riuscite a stare nella foto senza violare il distanziamento, ma era comunque una cosa fastidiosa, al punto che si è avvicinato un carabiniere, uno di quegli appuntati giovanissimi al primo anno di servizio, e ha chiesto loro cosa stessero facendo. Mi aspettavo che smettessero e si scusassero, per rispetto della divisa e della circostanza, invece una ha risposto: "Ci facciamo una foto rispettando il distanziamento, c'è qualcosa che lo vieta?". L'arroganza di quella risposta non me la dimenticherò mai. Il carabiniere, per quanto giovanissimo, si è comportato da signore e non ha perso le staffe. "Non c'è un divieto, ma vi sembra il caso di farvi i selfie, con i camion che portano via i morti." [...]
"Cosa c'entrano i morti con la nostra foto? Le norme sono contro il contagio, non contro il buon umore.”
― Michela Murgia, Tre ciotole: Rituali per un anno di crisi

“If Only (Sonnet 1983)

If I were a fascist,
I'd press that button,
and wipe the colonizers
off the planet for good.

If I were a fascist,
I'd press that button,
and let millions of innocents
burn for a greater global good.

If I were a fascist,
I'd press that button,
sanctified of filth
we would start anew.

If only I were a fascist
like you - if only!”

“Colonials Go Home!
(Forest Fascist Reserve, Sonnet)

Colonials go home, not to England
or Europe, but straight to the jungle!
Only place wild animals are beautiful,
is in the dog-eat-dog spaces of the wild.

Don't worry, once in a while we'll visit,
like we visit any of your fellow animals.
If anything, visiting you will inspire us
further, to never deviate from integration.

Nevertheless, there is still another way,
you don't need to be deported back to the jungle.
If there is even a smidgen of humanity in you,
now is the time to bring it out, and get help.

Otherwise, we can easily trace your family tree,
back to the time your family lived in it.
Once we do, all nine billion of us will chip in,
and hire a couple of cargo planes to deport
all you bigots to a forest fascist reserve.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Neurosonnets: The Naskar Art of Neuroscience

“On The Good Side of Government (Sonnet 2199)

How to be on the good side of government,
this is a manual for the monkeys -
never question, never reason, never doubt,
be a good little patriot, blind to atrocity.

Foster no conviction on human rights,
memorize the moral parameters set by the state,
and remember, it's not about morality or ethics,
it's about licking the boots of office idiots.

Use music and movies as propaganda machine,
for the government's favorite god 'n religion,
never make art about correcting social ill,
but about maintaining fanatical superstition.

However, well aware of all the dangers,
if you still dare to stand as human -
I salute you, o brave beacon of life,
there is hope yet for human civilization!”
― Abhijit Naskar, The God Sonnets: Naskar Art of Theology

“Whether the head smashes against the wall, or the wall smashes against the head, the result is always the same - whether a fascist smashes against the citizens, or the citizens smash against the fascist, the result is always the same.”
