FASCISM DEFINED | The Difference between Fascism and National Socialism

History has been forgotten. Nobody seems to know what 'Fascism' actually is, or was, or means. And the word has degenerated into little more than a slur. Today though I'm going to use historical sources to accurately define what Fascism was, place it within the context of history, and explain why there was a difference between Fascism and National Socialism, and what that difference was. I'll be giving the technical definitions of both Fascism and Nazism, backed by references so you can double-check my work. Sources are listed in the links below. I'm NOT a Fascist, I'm NOT a Nazi, I'm NOT a Marxist, and I'm NOT racist or anything else. I do not support said evil ideologies and I'm not promoting them either. My goal here is to give as accurate an account of history as possible so that we may learn from our mistakes and prevent history from repeating.

I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do. This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.
