Benito Mussolini: The Man Who Destroyed Democracy 

good info channel .. they played footie with his head you know .. G O A L !

Can you do one on Andrew Carnegie the steel king?

Biographics you do amazing research. I started not thinking these were good, because it was all audio, but then I watched a few and found they were very well done. Simon whistler for president!

_subtly hilarious_ .. Bravo !

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

IDK if that's anything he really said but I still laughed..... 😈

S tier take

WeezaY5000 actually , you can! It was done and still is regularly by a lot of Portuguese emigrants (some my friends). They go to there to find jobs and better conditions of life. As we (Portugal) have a very large base of Portuguese emigrantes there, it’s easier to settle. But make no mistake, people who emigrate to Switzerland are not rich , not even close (speaking only for my country and the experiences I know).

Gagahaga 😎 🤗 LMAO

TIM 0694 is not easy with no money tho it is possible far from easy.

@@AmtS12 The sad reality is when desperate people move to another country for a job they usually do it with the help of a huge loan. So no, you can't do it without money these days.

Yes you can. Why do you think the people smugglers are running such a booming trade?

Or not, depending on his teaching style.

@@deusexaethera :o

You must imagine how Pol Pot's students were surprised. Benito compared to Pol Pot was bully. Pol Pot was modest, hid his intentions.

Kinda like me when my teacher became a pornstar

Yes I think that every time

Another fascist leader does the same thing today with rallies and people wearing red hats.

"Pasketti"

Yup, these same gestures are now taught all over the world. You can tell this guy took some gesture class's too, he bobbs his head around, moves his hands a lot, same with his eyebrows.

Ah cmon Tony a friend of ours forget the pasta grab the machine gun

@@BoleDaPole there was no such thing as gestures class in Italy back then, he was simply a natural

Hey, I know you!

Did they ever meet again? I'd pay to see that interaction.

A similar situation seems to have been developing stateside with POTUS 45.

@@focusedeye Totally bro ....

There is even movies promoting them as legends. Savages, the pigs and bears did to Italy during ww2...

As with many dictators, though not all, some of his acts or programs, taken in isolation, were good. Doesn't redeem him though, not in the least.

I think you are little wrong about mafia and the role they have in Italy before Benito came on power.

@@shebbs1 "Doesn't redeem him though, not in the least." What condemns him in the first place? He doesn't like liberal democracy? Cry me a river

And the US did nothing against Italian mobsters, just against common folk, interning tens of thousands of Italians. Of course, America couldn't have interned all Germans and Italians, as they would have lost about 43 percent of their military power that way. But they still locked up tens of thousands of Germans and Italians each, in the land of freedom. What a joke. Still no pardon to the Germans to this day either, just Japanese and Italians.

Three take it or leave it

"Nah, we ready. You see these boots? We ready."

American generals: "We can win this war in Afghanistan and Iraq in a couple of weeks". American politicians: "We need to rebuild, send monies and keep troops in those countries till they become democracies like us". And many years later and still to this day...…..

Sounds like a rick Harrison deal

Mussolini: we arent ready for an invasion of greece! Hitler: nah

Was just thinking the same thing after hearing that. Interesting stuff, but not sure how accurate it is .

Cary Crosby I think these videos have the broad strokes correct but can get some other stuff wrong, or stress things that maybe were not stressed in reality for entertainment purposes.

Well he probably meant the allies which all in all where the United nations..... And I am not sure what its called but after the 1st ww America made a treaty named "Völkerbund" in German which was a pre UN

Correct. NATO was created after the fall of Germany and WW2.

That would be awesome!

Nice

Biographics awesome! Great channel. One of the best places for a history lesson.

Yay, learned about him in A-levels, sadly I have forgotten most of it. Would love a refresher on the mad monk

By that point his opinions were in full opposition with those of the socialist party they just couldn't let him stay.

If hitler didn’t go to prison, he wouldn’t have written mein kompf

Those men and lots of their accomplices were sociopaths! They would have found a way to commit terrible crimes ! It was / is just a matter of opportunity that would determine the scale/magnitude of their crimes !

Socialism and fascism are fiercely incompatible, so he had fascist inclinations from the very start. Case in point is Nazi germany; the first thing Hitler did before and after gaining power was wipe out any and all opposition to the NSDAP, which just so happened to be, you guessed it, socialists and communists.

probably the Germans would've taken over because the monarchy of the time was really, really weak.

Basically anyone with power that’s not Japanese lol

@@temjinAMG I would include Japanese in that lol

@RealDonaldTrump👀👀👀

Do you mean all politicians?

Obama

Arriba. Arriba. was his motto...the Spanish version of Hilter's salute and Trumps make america great. Now if you say that in public in Spain, you'll get beaten.

My grandpa saw him once, he was really short, like 5'1. True Napoleonic syndrome.

Sorry I'm not a native speaker. I am repeating what I thought I heard from a friend of mine in Madrid. Thanks for the clarifiction though :)

Umm, no...they are all the same. Authoritarian a**holes, namecallers like yourself, and other hating scum range widely in intellect, but they are ultimately all buffoons and should be ridiculed and defeate. These worst of the cowards who need to cheat, kill, and propagandize shouting with their bullhorn a message of deceit and fear because they are all charlatans and enemies of humanity. They cannot use reason, so they appeal to the irrational side and inflict the most damage. Believe me, I am not picking sides. These disgusting murderous authoritarian elements exist all over the place, even if they are not highly personified in any one individual. It does not matter if it is Henry Truman justifying a nuclear bomb, Putin killing journalist, Hillary assasinating Qaddafi, Obama's drone strikes, Israel's murder of Palestinians, Hitlers murder or Jews, or la Represión franquista. These are all performed by cowards or are cowardly acts under an authoritarian mindset and represent a deep seated murderous evil in our leaders and us that needs to be uprooted before we off ourself in nuclear fire.

Franco is the most chilling fascist story, because his regime didn't end for much longer and its effects haven't faded yet. It shows us what might have been had Hitler and Mussolini not gotten into wars they could not win, and where modern fascisms could go.

Mac Muller I love this statement . It's quite true and lacks the hallow Utopianism of the modern world

@@kazkk2321 it's overly simplistic and presents violence as an inevitable necessity. It's an aberration symptomatic of our humanity, that's why it cannot be shaken off, it is how it is. Violence itself is not a vector for progress, the chaos and needs it generates during and after do.

Henry -the pizza eater- Morgan violence is a necessity. As Benito once said, there is moral and immoral violence

Edgelord the perfect definition 😂😂😂😂

Just thinking about that line will cut you

well fascism in reality its not a right Wing political ideology, it's the third position

I can't say I studied much Italian history. But is the Vatican and Catholicism considered part of Italy's government or ruling class?

@@noisemarine561 i don't think so

@@noisemarine561 the Vatican was and is a state of its own, but during fascism catholicism was made compulsory (for the first and only time in "united" Italy's history) by the Patti Lateranenzi (I have no idea how you say that in english)

@@noisemarine561 The Vatican was created by Mussolini btw

@@noisemarine561 No, The Vatican is an indipendent kingdom with own Constitution, military, policecorp, governement and laws. It’s one of the smallest states in the world, consisting in a few streets around Piazza San Pietro in Rome. The Italian Constitution do not mention any religion nor church in any way, apart where it states that any individual has the right to profess any believe and the the italian State guarantee this freedom.

Nah, he sounds pretty Italian to me.

Nope, just the epitome of toxic masculinity. He spent his entire adult life proving his manhood by hurting people.

Wrong channel mate

Yes, for once people will see how overrated he likely is. But, he was in many ways like the USSR itself: master of morale and propaganda. At that time. And legitimately far from bad at strategy. Quite good, but far from the perfect picture often presented.

101jir I went to Moscow recently and the older russians adore zhukov as he bought the surrender papers from Germany and they have this large statue of him just outside red square

Harry Forsyth I am aware that he is adored in Russia, and would expect it to be especially so by older Russians. That establishes that he is popular, at least. Did you intend on saying anything about whether that glory was deserved?

Maybe even Heinz Geudarian

It has been done.

Ours in America is dying people won't stand up people don't want freedom sadly

:)

Fascism is the idea of the collective is more important than the individual. Corporations and government merge together for the betterment of the collective. If you have wrong thought and/or associated with the wrong group you must be eliminated.

True!!

also andrei chikatilo!

indeed

Free helicopter rides he should also do Pinochet since this is about Mussolini, especially since white nationalists love Pinochet for killing leftists but aren't aware he also tortured Chilean Nazis

Alex wonderland i love seeing americans saying “viva pinochet" despite the fact they never lived in the horrible dictatorship they created.

@John Dunbar And Gandhi was a war lover who believed in nazis ideas

juan se hernandez How was Gandhi a war-monger? He legit refused to use violence

and indirectly to Germany.

The civil rights movement. African-Americans shed a lot of blood but didn’t violently overthrow the Jim Crow laws. Predating WW2, the suffragettes come to mind. I’d say that many (not *ALL* before someone starts furiously typing) equality groups turned the wheel through non-violence, since they weren’t in a position to be aggressors, being as oppressed as they were.

@@lewiskazinsky7334 Thanks for your answer! By suffragettes, do you mean the womans suffragettes movement for womens right to vote? Also could you also recall the name of any such equality group?

@@DevashishMulye Yes, that’s the one! As for the civil rights movement, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference were a black organisation that organised the 1957 bus boycotts and put Martin Luther King on a national platform. They essentially birthed the movement, and although they were later overshadowed by the sheer number of unaffiliated demonstrators, I’d say the SCLC were as close to a leadership entity as you could get back then.

HA!

I mean.... in italian the word for driver is "conDUCEnte"

@Jonathan because duce is a latin word and italian still have many words that come from or are still the same as the old latin. Duce comes from the verb duco (It has a lot of meanings but you just need to know that overall it means to lead to) conducente is just one of those words that come from latin (con-duco) and in italian means the one who's driving

Ciao!!

Erick Alden Yes, true mob rule democracy implodes but not in America.

What Democracy? We live in an Oligarchy now.

Erick Alden well that's not true. A a republic for example which is the type of government we have in the u.s. is very fragile since all the powers and verse in one person and the many times that person has abused their power in some way. In a democracy there's also problem there with mob rule however since there's so many people in it democracy, interest will compete instead of passing a large something that would ban Free Speech, most likely nothing would happen because the mob isn't always congruent

Augustine Daudud do you live in America? Have you been paying attention to Donald Trump's attack on free speech and the freedom of the press? Especially the people who do not follow him like brain dead zombies? We are slowly moving away from a democracy, republic or whatever the hell else our founding fathers intended America to be

Tough titty P Diddy well, America is a republic, a corrupted Republic however. The founding fathers intended it to be a Serene Republic as it should have been if it weren't for the corruption and lack of interest in helping Americans besides themselves. A republic

Always remember history so we dont repeat it

Every American politician to ever hold office

Sounds trumpedisly similar to today

If Trump was 1% of the man Mussolini was, America would be a respectful country not one that will be bought by China in the future.

@@r0ast5_61 No... I hate fascistic monarchs and Nazis more than the next guy, in fact I'm basically a commie - the forefront opposition to these groups, but Willhelm political beliefs were nowhere near as vile as Hitler's. He is well known for being a vocal critic of Hitler during the Nazi consolidation of power.

Mannerheim is a fucking legend "summarized"

Perhaps he meant Italian fascism.

@@allyvandergaast8746 Gentile invented Italian fascism, the earliest form of fascism.

As soon as I heard that less than 3 seconds in I stopped watching

Mussolini founded the Fasces of Revolutionary action in 1914, Marinetti founded the Futurist party which merged with the Italian Fasces of Combat in 1919. D'Annunzio was a nationalist critic of fascism, Sorel was a syndicalist who had some brief philosophical flirts with Integral Nationalism but ultimately ended up supporting the Bolshevik Revolution and thought of it as syndicalism in practice. He was fond of Mussolini but was critical of Fascism and "class-cooperation". Gentile was a neo-hegelian philosopher who only became nterested in Fascism after the March on Rome and later gave the theoretical justification of Fascism through his epistemology, So yes, if there was anyone who can be said to have "created" fascism it was certainly Mussolini. Obviously he was influenced by many people but it was him who ultimately gave Fascism it's name and image.

@@TheFaithfulRedeemer I suppose you could say he popularised fascism and made it a mainstream ideology.

@@austinsowers2974 Real question is do they have a issue with commies

It's not like they even had to get Italy's help. The Italian leadership were bluntly against helping Austria and Germany anyway, citing that their Triple Alliance was purely defensive and Austria was the aggressor party. Leaving them to maintain this neutrality in WW1 may have been a better call.

Not boxing but fencing. Mussolini dueled five different socialists between 1915 and 1922 and won all five fights
