don't forget globalism.
Concentrated power for the gratification of the power hungry is very different than a people pulling together for the good of their motherland.

So, we don't have to live in a Fascist State?
Ironically, it sounds like we are in a Fascist State, so why would you complain? You have what you want!
We do not live in a fascist state. We live in a land of selfishness and nihilism. OswaldTheOsprey As opposed to the wonderful world of despotism?  |

All systems of (unchecked) concentrated power are essentially corrupt, social/situational psychology makes this as obvious as history.
The state itself is a violent institution so when this power is focused on things like Nationalism they become detrimental to its own population, not to mention other populations.
