The famously "egalitarian" Nazis who thought provokingly also railed against the "Jewish capitalism" in their "egalitarian" pursuit of racial purity and a welfare state for the superior "egalitarian" Aryan volk?

Here is Mussolinis doctrine: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/14058/14058-h/14058-h.htm

"No individuals nor groups (political parties, associations, labour unions, classes) outside the State. For this reason Fascism is opposed to Socialism, which clings rigidly to class war in the historic evolution and ignores the unity of the State which moulds the classes into a single, moral and economic reality."

Straight out of the pigs mouth. Of course, it's still propaganda, he could have said it is socialism, and it still wouldn't be socialism if it isn't socialism. The same way you can call a pig a horse, or the Nazis egalitarian.

Whats a tankie btw?

Whats a tankie btw?

Originally, these were western supporters of soviet/russian imperialism. Soviet imperialism was very much a seamless continuation of tsarist imperialism.

After WW2, Soviet Russia had military control of much of Europe. They installed authoritarian governments that were under their control, but of course there were occasional reform movements, notably in Hungary 1956 or Czechoslovakia 1968. Russia crushed these "revolts" with overwhelming military force. They sent in the tanks, and so those who favored military aggression were called "tankies".

Note: These were regular wars between countries by any definition.
