I'm gonna speak the truth to power
Just because you've got the power I'm still gonna speak the truth
My truth
The truth
The true power
Just because they've got the power doesn't mean I'm not gonna tell them the truth
Your truth
Our truth
The power is truth
Just cos the suit has the power doesn't mean they own the truth
The people own the truth
We own the truth
The people own the power
We're gonna speak the truth to power
Our truth is gonna shake the power
The cult of tradition
One has only to look at the syllabus
Of every fascist movement to find the major traditionalist thinkers
The Nazi gnosis was nourished by traditionalist, syncretistic, occult elements
The rejection of modernism
The Enlightenment, the Age of Reason
Is seen as the beginning of modern depravity
In this sense Ur-Fascism can be defined as irrationalism
The cult of action for action's sake
Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before
Or without, any previous reflection
Thinking is a form of emasculation
Disagreement is treason
The critical spirit makes distinctions, and to distinguish is a sign of modernism
In modern culture the scientific community praises disagreement
As a way to improve knowledge
Fear of difference
The first appeal of a fascist or prematurely fascist movement is an appeal against the intruders
Thus Ur-Fascism is racist by definition
Appeal to social frustration
One of the most typical features of the historical fascism
Was the appeal to a frustrated middle class
A class suffering from an economic crisis or feelings of political humiliation
And frightened by the pressure of lower social groups
The obsession with a plot
Thus at the root of the Ur-Fascist psychology there is the obsession with a plot
Possibly an international one
The followers must feel besieged
The enemy is both strong and weak
By a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus
The enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak
Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy
For Ur-Fascism there is no struggle for life but, rather, life is lived for struggle
Contempt for the weak
Elitism is a typical aspect of any reactionary ideology
Everybody is educated to become a hero
In Ur-Fascist ideology, heroism is the norm
This cult of heroism is strictly linked with the cult of death
Machismo and weaponry
Machismo implies both disdain for women
And intolerance and condemnation of nonstandard sexual habits
From chastity to homosexuality
Selective populism
There is in our future a TV or Internet populism
In which the emotional response of a selected group of citizens can be presented
And accepted as the Voice of the People
Ur-Fascism speaks Newspeak
All the Nazi or Fascist schoolbooks made use of an impoverished vocabulary
And an elementary syntax
In order to limit the instruments for complex and critical reasoning
