Karl Schmidt's Fascism

Fashism is the idea that societies always have an authoritarian element to them, or else they're too weak to handle any real problems. Societies need a strong sense of identity that they can rally around and don't end up wasting time in gridlock debating issues. When you're willing to reject liberal principles, if that's something you're willingto do, fashism just becomes what of different groups landed on. The strategy basically being that the best defence is a good offence.
