This chapter presents an extended contrast between the fascist and antifascist models of the state and looks at the assumptions about human nature that each has highlighted. Whereas fascists exalt masculinity and a warrior ethic, antifascists fight against what they condemn as “toxic masculinity.” Antifascists have called for and, where the opportunity exists, implemented measures to remove a specific masculine identity from the workplace, social organizations, and even family relations. Another feature of fascism and of all traditional conservative movements that antifascists combat is the notion of a fixed human identity based in false social ascriptions. Finally, in contrast to the fascist stress on integral nationalism, the antifascists advocate a borderless world. |
