A recurring theme of fascism is that the depravity and decadence of a liberal society must be burned away and replaced with racial and moral purity. Start all over.
Even if done tongue-in-cheek, Billy Idol’s White Wedding (1982) seems to reflect that belief in some of its lyrics:
There is nothing fair in this world
There is nothing safe in this world
And there's nothing sure in this world
And there's nothing pure in this world
Look for something left in this world
Start again
Do you want a strong, authoritarian leader? Look again to the lyrics:
Hey little sister, who's your superman?
And, of course, the white in White Wedding refers to the supposed virginity of the bride: a new life begun with a pure, blank slate, and, if you accept a fascist, racist subtext, a new society purged of all that is non-white.
