Happy Birthday, Il Duce! /pol/ users, what do you think of him? Was he a good leader? If not, what could he have done better? Is (true) Fascism the way to go?

I never claimed that. Mussolini is proof that it was tried. What I meant by "true fascism" is actual Italian style Fascism rather than the general meaning people use to describe any person, politician, or government they don't like or is remotely authoritarian.

I think he is underrated. Have you read Ezra Pound's Jefferson and/or Mussolini ?
He got rid of Freemasonry and united a country they blood rather than Progress. Tho I think the Church should have been brought into the spotlight more (Papal states 2.0)

He had some damn good quotes, thats for sure

No, I haven't.

Maybe so, but religious influence in politics had declined since the Enlightenment, so even in reactionary regimes, it wasn't as important :/

I read that he was a great military man, but not so great as a state leader. Do you agree with that?

Considering Italy was a deeply divided newborn Nation with a lot of indipendent and obscure centers of power(freemasons, Church, Savoia, mafia etc..) he did a pretty good job
He had charisma.
That's about it.

What is Argentina under Peron? What is modern day Singapore?

I agree
Aside joining war and those retarded racial laws (to listen to the eternal austrian) he literally did nothing wrong.

>Proud, strong Italian man takes control of the government by force like a true son of rome
>Weak, effeminate kraut tries to emulate the same (as barbarians always do), fails, comes back later and does it democratically instead
How can nazis even compete?
