Got in a somewhat argument with a friend about this. I was under the impression that it was essentially far right with a different name for the sake of being different. His take was “It’s like just the good parts of socialism”

    “Third Position” is just a euphemism and autonym for fascism. Fascists in general like to use it, since they claim to stand against both liberal capitalism and socialism as it’s generally known, but the ones who tend to use it more are “left-wing” or syncretic fascists.

    Though these types are a fringe even within the larger fascist movement, I find them to be the vilest of anti-socialists because they use the same words as, and claim to uphold the same values as us. An example of this is a comment I saw on a fascist subreddit where someone claimed they preferred communism to capitalism because “ugly black rappers” wouldn’t be able to get rich.
