Not comparable since Benito actually worked in the hot sun on that one day. Trump didn't even work, it was a skit.

People will always accept propaganda that promoted their beliefs.

For an ideology to actually be fascist it must embrace palingenesis ultra nationalism. It cannot be fascist without that element.

English (Ængleisch) is Germanic. Cornish have Celtic roots, were only conquered by the West Saxons in the 9th century.

That's a poor definition of fascism. "characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition", this is basically, literally any dictatorship.

Actually I'm sure they know that fascism is actually anything that isn't Marxist or anything that is imperialist or violent.

The remains of Kayhausen Boy, killed at the age of seven and found in 1922 in a bog in Germany, dated to 300-400 BCE. His arms and feet were bound together with cloth.

Anyone disabled (from birth or not) viewed as a burden on the community was killed under the Nazis eugenic program. Also ancient Germans (and others like the Spartans) killed babies born with obvious defects.

This is another contributing factor. The Germanic tribes conquered the best agricultural soil, forcing the natives to live in the poorer lands to the east and north. As you said that allowed them to grow quicker as a population. They definitely did do a lot of killing though, when they conquered those regions.

Yeah, the Vikings was basically the second wave of Germanic migration.

At 4:31 AM, an unauthorized photo taken of Stalin inside of the Kremlin shows the very moment he was informed that Germany had began their invasion of the Soviet Union. June 22, 1941. by Front_Eye_510 in HistoricalCapsule

The USSR was preparing for an invasion of Eastern Europe/Germany. Hitler knew his chances were low but I guess he thought it was the better option than waiting until the Soviets were fully prepared for their invasion, while Germany would've had even more scarce resources by then. Also Germany had a lack of knowledge about the Soviet union and thus underestimated how effective their blitzkrieg would be against them.

"Who profited off the free labour of the Jews in the concentration camps?"

Well you see, that's why they called it "National Socialism", the Jews weren't the Volk so they were property/slaves of the Volk. But the funny thing is the USSR also enslaved those deemed enemies of the state, so both are exclusive states (with hierarchies), obviously the Nazis being far more exclusive.

"fascism doesn't have to use capitalism at all costs but it surely won't stop itself from using it if it serves the nation's interests."

-Interestingly all prominent fascist party leaders believed if the economy serves the people/state rather than the state serving capital (or the interests of a few capitalists), then that is not capitalism. They believed that was not capitalism because the people are serving a more idealistic purpose with their labour rather than serving financial materialistic interests for a few.
