Here’s a really good article on fascism which broadens the definition from the commonly understood one, and connects fascism to colonialism and capitalism/liberal democracy in general.
Just to jump in with additional analysis on facism, Michael Parenti does a good job covering some of the history of facism in WWII and how it has continued to propagate in current times. He also shows how facism is more flexible than we give it credit for, how it has arisen in more subtle ways than it did in 1920s Italy or 1930s Germany.
In particular, “Functions of Facism” is a great starting point.

Gabriel Rockhill also has work on fascism as innate to capitalism and the false narratives of fascism being defeated in WW2 by liberalism.
Damn, that it a great article.
