In it's origin, fascism was not BAD or EVIL. It was a concept born out of economic strife which leaned in the direction of a strong central government, highly nationalized economy, and social management. Mussolini was very popular among liberals until the war in Europe. Are these not some of the basic characteristics of liberalism and socialism? Are these not facts?
Like fascism, the concepts of liberalism and socialism are not BAD or EVIL. Only the application of these concepts haven't been too successful (or humane) to date.
To claim that associating fascism accurately with liberal or socialist concepts as a "sublimbaugh bit of nonsense", sounds a bit like an argument I've heard before and I'm assuming that you're just repeating it. Your comment is probably an amusing one-liner among the faithful, but it doesn't make it true.
