    The crux of fascism is making your base paranoid. Make them believe all their murder is done out of self defense. If they would not kill all those other people, others would kill them.

    The perfect example is the paranoid ethnostate in the middle east.

      You say that, but are they wrong?

        Of course they are wrong. Palestinians have offered time and time again to have a peaceful solution but the Israelis are violent Nazis. Israelis want to murder all Palestinians and steal their land (and even more for Greater Israel)

        Replace the word Israeli with Nazi and the word Palestinian with Jews. Then you get:

        “Are the Nazis wrong to be so paranoid to think they need to kill all the Jews or they will never be able to live in peace?”

        If Israelis went back to their country of origin do you actually think Palestinians would follow them there to kill them instead of living peacefully on their own land?
