I can't believe...

As I said earlier, I believe National Socialism (Nazism) is based along racial lines, Fascism is more about Nationalism. The idea of a Master Race was not part of Mussolini's thinking as far as I'm aware.

I disagree with the 2 people out of 10,000 on the Curva Nord who displayed Nazi flags. Not my scene at all.

I did an essay on european fascism a couple of years ago at uni and from the reading it became clear that fascism is really quite different from nazism. The main difference is that while one of nazism's central pillars, if not THE central pillar, is a front-foot racial analysis of the world that promotes the Ayrian master race, and in which many races occupy varying positions, the same cannot be said for fascism. In fact the differences are so distinct that it's quite a leap from fascism to nazism with the former being far more interested in bringing about a millenarian return to past glories set in the context of a perceived society of order, discipline and national/group pride as opposed to racial purification.
