This is taken verbatim from another commenter (I forget where):
"Political scientist Dr. Lawrence Britt wrote an article about fascism. Studying the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia), and Pinochet (Chile), Dr. Britt found they all had 14 elements in common. He calls these the identifying characteristics of fascism.

Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights
Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
