Did some research; let's have a discussion. 

Whats so so wrong with fascism?

fas·cism'faSH?iz?m

/noun
  1. an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization.

1. Authoritarian, ok like a king? 
2. Nationalistic, I like the sound of that.
3. Right wing, sounds good to me.

If you look objectively at our case studies, all nations that were fascist did well internally. So I ask, whats so bad about being fascist?

Because fascism (or nationalist syndicalism AKA corporatism) is a left wing socialist ideology.

National Socialism, a racialy-based offshoot of fascism, is also a left wing socialist ideology.

They are nationalist, whilst communism is internationalist.

Up until very recently (and I mean VERY) fascism was a leftist ideology.  They relabeled it to make it a right wing culture.

Fascists... research Hitler Brown Shirts.

You will see the antifa are doing exactly like the Brown Shirts.

Violence to intimidate and shut down opposition.

Fascism isn't right-wing.  Fascism is most closely associated with Mussolini, who was a huge socialist.

in the US, right wing mainly means political attitudes supporting individual freedom based on the Constitution and traditional Christian values.  

European right wingers aren't the same as American right wingers.

Another term that has lost all meaning, reduced to an Ad-Hom. 

Examples:
Nazi
Racist
Fascist
Misogynist
Homophobe
etc.

If it ends in -ist or -phobe just ignore it as a Ad-Hom and rock on, leftist debate strategy, their ideas are bad and failed so thats all they got.

LoLoLazy you are

Try this ACTUAL definition on for size....

fascism
1: a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2:  a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control

There is no capitalism in fascism. Corporations are created by, and ruled over by government. Everything, and I mean everything, is to work towards the states ends.

No thanks.

That definition is (probably intentionally) broad.

That isn't correct either. Facism can be nationalistc or not. Spain was facist for decades. Not all nationalism is facistic either. All of these modern amended definitions of facism try to place The Nazi reich as being the prototypical definition of a facist state, when it is far from the idealization of a facist state. Mussolini said that facism should be more correctly called "corporatism" as it was the merger of corporation and government.

I think people are opposed to it because society has made it super taboo. 

The natural state of any society is to have a strong leader, this is why the presidency is such a big deal; when he is only 1/3 of the federal gov.

Let me guess where you learned Nazism is a Right Wing ideology, public schools? Long ago the Left perverted the political spectrum to serve their own ends and people are still regurgitating that bullshit generations later.

Nazis are left wing, their ideology is just a version of socialism, and fascism and socialism are in fact strikingly similar.

Left = Authoritarian, Right = Freedom.

Fascism is authoritarian and it abrogates the property rights of the citizenry to serve the State.

It's the male/female dimension.

Fascism is male socialism, vanilla socialism [e.g. Nordic and continental EU flavours] is female socialism.

Technically in fascism (national syndicalism) the government creates syndicates which work towards the goals of the State.

For example, shipyards in Fascistland would be organized into a shipbuilding syndicate.  While still privately owned, each shipyard would be assigned a role - build submarines; build battleships; build freighters, repair yard, etc. by the State Ministry of Industry (for example).

It is a command economy (like a communist country), but the means of production is "privately" owned.

Workers are likewise organised into State approved labor syndicates which are controlled by the fascist party.  So, the Fascist Guild of Shipyard Workers supports Giovanni & Sons Submarine Yard in producing the fascist State's submarines according to the Ministry of Industry's plan.

Meanwhile in Communistland, The State Ministry of Industry orders People's Shipyard 3 to build submarines to fullfil the Five Year Plan and People's Shipyard 3's workers collective pledges to be stakhanovite shock workers in fulfilling the plan

This.

"So, yes, sure fascism was seen as being to the “right” of Communism, because it was. Even Trotsky considered fascism to be right-wing socialism or middle-class socialism. It seems to me that the key word there is socialism, which is properly understood as a phenomenon of the Left. (The Soviets also considered not only the New Deal fascist and right-wing, but the American Socialist Party, too. "

Right can be Authoritarian, such as with a Monarch (going back to the aforementioned FR, the Monarchists (or what was left of them) sat on the Right). Left can be Freedom such as with "Pure Communism (which won't happen)"

Much like Communism Fascism is a label, and it means nothing really until it is applied to a situation.

No, there is no significant Fascist movement in the US, but it is a boogeyman word that the far left have decided to use because they have gotten so little traction when using the term Nazi, at one time calling someone a Nazi was attention getting, but they have over used it to the point where pop culture uses the term to describe an asshole deli employee, so Fascism it is.

The call to fight Fascism was a widely used technique to rally the population of the Soviet Union and puppet states during the cold war. Every nasty and terrible thing the East Germans did (see having a policy that you machine gun anybody you catch trying to leave your country) Stasi and all.

That is the true pedigree of the current ANTIFA Anti Fascist movement, the "outreach" departments of the old KGB and STASI. I would be willing to bet that it is more than just an ideological link, that if you dug deep enough you would find direct links between the founders of ANTIFA and actual former operatives of those forgotten operatives who spent the entire cold war trying to undermine the US and the west in general.
