    My fellow liberals, Mussolini wasn’t voted into power.

    Mussolini was literally invited into power to “restore order” by the liberals themselves because they didn’t know how to deal with the communists taking over the country.

    Mussolini’s fascism was the first successful test case of a liberal experiment to brutally crush Leninism in Europe following the Bolshevik Revolution. Hitler followed in Mussolini’s footsteps.

      Even funnier, Mussolini was invited into power by the litteral King of Italy, in a move that liberal historians are still struggling to describe in a way that doesn't mention "class interest of the aristocracy"

        Fascist-Catholic-Social Democrat-Liberal coalition government, united under Mussolini, against Communist-Socialist opposition.

        Truly the grandest coalition of all time.
