I would say that Imperialism overlaps Fascism, but (one of the) difference(s) between the two is that Fascism goes a lot harder into Ultranationalism. Under Imperialism you have a King or Queen, and they are ordained by God to rule. Under Ultranationalist Fascism your race (or whatever they count as 'race', nation, etc) is what makes you superior to everyone else. It was a lot harder to get people to fight for Kings and Queens they only knew from coins, than to say "we're fighting those EVIL (other nation people), whereas we are the PURE nation."

Another difference is that Fascism adores and requires total war. Imperialism wants to expand, but Fascism wants to dedicate every aspect of the nation towards that goal. There's that enigmatic 'other' that has to be destroyed, because it is both a weak and strong opponent. Fascism also says 'violence is good for the nation, if directed properly.' This means your January 6's, your political assassinations, etc, are all highlighted as good things. 'Drain the swamp' kind of rhetoric becomes literal violence to allow people being killed.

As mentioned below, Franco's Spain was quite bizarre, in that it had a lot of different traits (including fascist ones).

Imperialist nations can abandon overseas colonies, 'let' them become independent, etc. Yet Fascist nations need invasion and war to keep their economy going, which means they have to pick bigger fights. They also relied on slave labour (and I'm going to take this opportunity to name and shame the corporations that used those people as slave labour:

Among the slave laborers in the occupied territories, hundreds of thousands were used by leading German corporations including Thyssen, Krupp, IG Farben, Bosch, Blaupunkt, Daimler-Benz, Demag, Henschel, Junkers, Messerschmitt, Siemens, and Volkswagen, as well as the Dutch corporation Philips.

What people forget about Germany is that they had always planned to invade the Soviet Union. There's a lot of talk about 'if they hadn't,' but their lebensraum plan required it. In 1944 75% of their economy went to the military. They'd been deficit spending every year since the early/mid 30's. Fascism requires that all effort be put towards the military and war, regardless of if you're at war, but you need to be at war to get the land/money/etc you need to pay for the military that you made to... etc.

So anyway yes, fascist nations bully countries until either a bunch of them or one big one puts them back down.

That's how Fascists work though. They pick fights with bigger and bigger opponents -- because they're invulnerable, you see -- until they lose. Their economy was absolutely insane, and required flat out pillaging their neighbours. Eventually your neighbours are too big to pillage.

Oh wow, I just checked and mine turned 21 today! 🎊

What is a standard by your definition?

Human beings don't come in 'standards.' 105 men are born for every 100 women, does that mean women aren't 'standard' or 'normal'? You're using an appeal to definition, still. That isn't how we talk about people. There are more common things, but there is no 'normal,' 'standard,' etc. We have imposed standards, through a patriarchal system, which I feel Ursula K. Le Guin can explain far better than I.

So when I was born, there actually were only men. People were men. They all had one pronoun, his pronoun; so that’s who I am. I am the generic he, as in, “If anybody needs an abortion he will have to go to another state,” or “A writer knows which side his bread is buttered on.” That’s me, the writer, him. I am a man.

No, you seem to still not get the point...

I honestly have no idea what your points are. I still have no idea what:

"I say its a interesting change when put into the context of the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT many do identify as bisexual wich in return makes actually Bisexual people looked down upon by LGBT people"

That means. I get there's a newspaper article about what happened to that poor woman, and I don't doubt it happened, it's not as systemic as implied. Seriously, please slow down, and explain this:

the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT

What does this mean? Listen to straight people about what?

Most Gen Z LGBT are bisexual

So being bisexual is 'normal' then, is it? Does that make you abnormal?

I say its a interesting change when put into the context of the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT many do identify as bisexual wich in return makes actually Bisexual people looked down upon by LGBT people

I'm bi and have never experienced that, nor has anyone bi that I know, but I also have to ask... do you know what the 'B' in 'LGBT' stands for?

into the context of the Internet “LGBT” people being toxic and don’t listen to anyone not LGBT

The ~~invented~~ context of what? How do 'LGBT people not listen to anyone not LGBT'? For what? What the hell are you talking about? Is this a 'Gay Agenda' thing?

So just so we're clear, in your chart here, every single age group, from Gen-Z to Traditionalists, has increased every year.

Huh, it's almost like... these are numbers of openly LGBT people... and the more they are accepted, the more come out. And given that 1/5th of Gen-Z are already identifying that way, what will the number by in 2030?

You are using an appeal to definition and look absolutely childish.

I'm non-binary, and even my parents were shit about it when I came out. If you're ever feeling dysphoric because of, oh I dunno let's create a scenario: Some moron online tries to use right-wing junk-science make you feel lesser or abnormal because they feel powerless and all they can think to do is punch down like the cowards they are....

Then listen to this song, and know that I'm here, listening to it too, right beside you. Don't let these bigots get to you, because that's how they win, they make you doubt yourself. You know who you are, they know shit and they aren't fucking psychics.

Smash the patriarchy, punch a Nazi, and surround yourself with love.

I may be a trans girl but as far as most people are concerned I'm a normal girl

Girl what the fuck. You are a girl, there's no "concern" to it.

EDIT: To whomever downvoted me, one day they'll come for someone you do care about, and you'll remember this moment in shame and self-loathing.

I browse 'all' quite a bit, a few times a day, and I have had the same experience as you. I see more posts complaining about ".ml/tankies/etc" than I ever see problematic/whatever posts from them.
