**What is Fascism?**

The attraction for a certain aspiring dictator lies in the absolute power to act without restraint, including the ability to abuse that power.

**Why is this the case?**

For him, it serves as a "get-out-of-jail-free" card, allowing him to regain a sense of control over his perceived failures while punishing those who sought to hold him accountable for his actions.

**What is the original problem?**

This individual resembles a mob boss who refuses to listen to any viewpoint that challenges his own.

When it comes to breaking laws that carry severe consequences—consequences he has never faced due to his privileged upbringing—he bluntly questions, "What consequences?"

Though he lacks expertise in various subjects—because no one is all-knowing and immortal—he insists on pretending to be an authority without seeking any guidance or asking questions.

**So how does he arrive at supposedly correct answers?**

By osmosis?

Regardless of how confident he feels about his reading skills, effective comprehension is essential. 

Even someone with strong prejudices would have to be irrational to submit to a complete narcissist—someone who only cares about himself, lacks true expertise, and demands that others comply with his constantly changing whims based on shifting lies.

**So, ultimately, what is fascism?**

Fascism is a system of oppression, characterized by a lack of freedom and free speech, leaving individuals at the mercy of a spoiled dictator’s whims.

Where “you're fired!” can literally mean the firing squad.

**Fascism is terrorism**
