I believe — I deeply believe — that the true fascism is what sociologists have too kindly called the “consumer society.” A definition that seems harmless, purely descriptive. But it’s not. If one closely observes reality, and especially if one knows how to read into objects, landscapes, urban planning, and above all, into people, one sees that the outcomes of this carefree consumer society are the outcomes of a dictatorship, of a true and proper fascism. […]
This new fascism — this consumer society […] has profoundly transformed young people. It has touched them intimately, given them different feelings, different ways of thinking and living, different cultural models. It is no longer, as in the Mussolini era, a superficial, theatrical deregulation, but a real deregulation that has stolen and changed their soul. Which ultimately means that this “civilization of consumption” is a dictatorial civilization. In short, if the word fascism means the arrogance of power, then the “consumer society” has truly realized fascism.
