    Progressive Fascism (also called Progressive Third Positionism, Ultraprogressive Fascism, and Futurist Fascism) is a third positionist ideology which combines stances from Authoritarian Progressivism and Fascism. It refers individuals, organizations, and movements that combine fascism with an anti-traditionalist sentiment and thus socially progressive stances (i.e., being pro-LGBT and feminist), justifying a fascistic regime on philosophically progressive grounds, or progressives who adapt (real or alleged) fascist tactics or political strategies.

    As a pejorative, "Progressive Fascism" is used as an insult by non-fascist right-wing ideologues to describe advocates of Social Liberalism or Progressivism who exhibit "fascistic" tendencies. Perhaps the best example is the Justin Trudeau administration, which has pushed for hate speech laws, trampled on indigenous sovereignty, gave a platform to a former member of the Waffen SS, and cracked down on dissent (e.g., busting the trucker's convoy strike). In his book "Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, from Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning," Jonah Goldberg accuses Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt of exhibiting fascistic tendencies.

    History

    The most known instance of "progressive fascism" is Marinetti's Futurist Party, which would later merge with and try to influence Mussolini's National Fascist Party; Pekerism and certain members of the Kuomintang were also progressive fascists. The left-wing actual idealists of the National Fascist Party (PNF) also combined progressive ideals with corporate ultranationalism and imperialism (e.g., Italo Balbo, Mussolini's Minister of Corporations). Most movements or individuals who can be called "progressive fascists" are also futurists. However, while futurists prioritize the revolutionary aesthetic of "jumping" into the utopic future, progressive fascists contend how promoting social justice or dismantling oppressive norms aligns with, or is an essential part of, corporate ultranationalism.

    Beliefs

    As an ideology, Progressive Fascism places greater emphasis on fostering a revolutionary, dynamic, and progressive nation rather than idealizing a mythical past. Adherents view Authoritarianism or Totalitarianism as essential for dismantling outdated, oppressive traditions or hierarchies, drawing parallels with ideologies like Maoism and Jacobinism. Consequently, proponents of Progressive Fascism often advocate for Imperialism, Militarism, Futurism, and Corporatism.

    Neo-Jacobin Fascism

    Neo-Jacobin Fascism, Fascist Neo-Jacobinism, or Jacobin Fascism is culturally far-left and economically third positionist system based upon the ideals of the Jacobin Club and Robespierre's Reign of Terror, but within a fascist framework. It believes in a radical restructuring of society inspired by the French Revolution's ideals: Equality, Liberty and Fraternity. It believes a fascistic system is necessary to realize them. Equality is only realized through the corpus of the state; each individual is part of the greater body and therefore equal, despite the hierarchical nature of the state. Liberty is viewed, in true fascist fashion, as a result of collective liberation, with the added abolition of what is perceived as "oppressive social structures". As such, Neo-Jacobin Fascism often takes on a individualist interpretation of Totalitarianism, similar to Actual Idealism. Fraternity is where it puts most of its effort as its part of the national mythos. In practice, Neo-Jacobin Fascism tends to be identical to Futurist Fascism, despite the differences in theory and aesthetics.

    Friends

    • Reactionary Modernism - The only reactionary I'd ever be willing to work with. We both seek to restore old glory through new innovation, and some of us both like Futurist and Roman aesthetics, but you're still a little too traditionalist.
    • Maoism - A totalitarian progressive state which violently destroyed traditions and many traces of China's past? And you're a class collaborationist!? Based! Wait, why are you attacking me?
    • Revolutionary Progressivism - You're very similar to me, but often less class collaborationist.
    • Neosocialism - You're so close to perfection! But you need to be more culturally progressive.
    • Pekerism - An unironic progressive fascist. I have few complaints about you.

    Frenemies

    • Fascism - I want to like you, and I've adopted you, but please stop working with the Vatican and emboldening conservatives abroad. Please merge with him.
    • Anarcho-Futurism - I admire your revolutionary spirit, my boy! But without a totalitarian corporate state, you can't exterminate conservatives.
    • Accelerationism - Stop being descriptive! Embrace the totalitarian corporate state and actually accelerate what you call "techno-capital."
    • State Liberalism - A lot of people think I'm you, but understand that the classes should work together; the bourgeoise shouldn't wield absolute power, as that breeds decadence.
    • Corwin Schott Theory - Weird guy who likes me.
