Collectivism is the core symbolism and meaning of the fasces. That's why they chose the fasces symbol.
Collectivism is the core, the foundational belief of Socialism.
Socialism, is a spectrum.
Begining and ending with centralized authority, centralized control, With a collective sociopolitical identity based upon a collective identity, a collective ownership of , society, resources, distribution and control of resources, production and the means of production.
There is no individual identity acknowledgement, no individual rights, individual ownership of self or property. There is only the collective.
The Race, the Tribe, the Party, the State, the Nation, the Union, the Empire, the Religion. Choose your arbitrary group identity.
The Fasces has been an American symbol since 1789. Adopted from the ancient Republic Of Rome’ s symbol of unity, order and strength.
It is shown in the U. S. Capitol.
However,
The concepts of the Republic, of a Constitutional Republic, are far removed from the progressive concept of Democracy.
In
A Constitutional Republic, it is the State, that is restricted.
The Constitution restricts the powers of government in order to preserve the liberty, the natural rights of the individual. The Constitution, protects the individual from the whims and abuses of the masses. Thus securing the natural rights of all individual citizens without exception.
A popular Democracy is the rule of, by, the mob.
Only the mob, the majority , the great collective, have rights and power and authority. The individual, is meaningless.
Notice that the progressives speak of Democracy, Democratic ideals, identity politics. While demonizing the ideas of individual rights, individual identity, individual liberty.
They openly declare that the “rights”, the will of the masses, must supercede all privileges of the individual, including life, liberty, property, thought, identity and speech.
Anyone ever notice the Dime?
The Fasces was first used on the Dime in 1916.
Later, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was placed on the face of the Dime.
Interesting, the American progressives first placed the fasces on the Dime in 1916 when Progressive Democrat Woodrow Wilson was President.
During the great depression, Roosevelt, along with Progressives in Congress instituted the “New Deal”.
The progressives “New Deal” remade the economy of the U.S. into a defacto Fascist economic system. Prior to the U.S. entering into WW2, both Mussolini and Hitler were praised for their Progressive policies.
The Three term Progressive Democrat President F.D.R., Roosevelt was immortalized on the coin bearing the favored Progressive symbol , the Fasces.
Fasces, from whence the words Fascism and Fascist are derived.
NOTHING is done in secret.
The true evils are done completely in the open, unhidden.
Do with this what you will.
You don't have to crawl through rabbit holes.
Those hidden warrens are merely the distractions to confuse the curious and distract the masses.
The World Burns In the flames of Wicked Ambitions.
