Back in the 1920s, however, when fascism was a new political development, it was widely — and correctly — regarded as being on the political left. Jonah Goldberg’s great book “Liberal Fascism” cites overwhelming evidence of the fascists’ consistent pursuit of the goals of the left, and of the left’s embrace of the fascists as one of their own during the 1920s.Mussolini, the originator of fascism, was lionized by the left, both in Europe and in America, during the 1920s.

He was a masterful conman to con an entire nation. But the conman’s nemesis is when he is delusional to the point that he thinks the con is no longer a ruse but a reality. Basically he cons himself. How could he possibly delude himself into thinking that Italy could match the industrial power of the allies? This 20th Century Caesar was laughable but none should dismiss his murderous ways in rise to power.He was a criminal as well.
