Anyone heard of or read this book. It's a psychoanalysis of the fascist psyche through - way more interesting and insightful than any mainstream press on fascism. Check it out people.

Male Fantasies, huh? Sounds less fascist and more gay erotica.

Yeah, the title is quite misleading - but it's based on the assertion that fascism is specifically a 'masculine' ideology instead of broader social ideoligies such as liberalism, conservatism, or marxism, which are all supposedly genderless. It rejects anything feminine by resorting to violence. Sort of like militant feminists, but the opposite of course. The 'fantasy' part is based on the fact that fascism goes beyond politics and, it's core, is based on primal animal insticts that aim at transending humanity through war and becoming like machine. Although there is a brief section on the correlation between fascism and homosexuality. It's some interesting shit.

It does, from your description, seem pretty interesting. The 'fantasy' part, especially, seems interesting.
And put into context, the title does seem suitable.
