Nazi-Maoism
Nazi-Maoism was a political ideology, movement and term coined by Franco Freda in 1968 after being called an insult by Right-wing agitators for his beliefs of taking two different opposable elements of National Socialism and Maoism and combining them together to become more accelerationist.

Origin
Freda along with his love for Fascism was inspired by Mao Zedong's idea and tactics of a Maoist guerilla warfare with the concept of a "people's war" and intended to incorporate that with his idea. His inspiration from the Communist leader was what drew him to believing China at the time was a form of "Chinese National Socialism". He started his movement what he referred to as the "Struggle of the People" with the idea of neither Capitalism or Communism, neither reds or reactionary.He also developed hatred towards America, jews, Israel, western society, and zionism while advocating for totalitarianism .
Figure inspiration
His ideological stance was eclectic, drawing from a diverse array of influences including communists like Mao Zedong, Amadeo Bordiga, Third Position theorists like Adolf Hitler, Giovanni Gentile, the traditionalist philosopher Julius Evola, Plato and Nietzsche.
Struggle of the People
With Franco Freda gaining a large amount of support, students from Sapienza University in Rome took alot of inspiration from him from his writings and theory. They all came together and advocated for a combination of ideas from both the extreme left and third positionism. Meeting up with Freda, they started "Struggle of the People" and began their revolution to violently attempt to overthrow the government and bourgeoisie to establish a "Fascist Dictatorship of the proletariat". Freda firmly believed that terrorist attacks were the most effective method to bring about the disintegration of the existing system. Failing to overthrow the government, Freda along with his supporters were arrested and charged with terrorism, treason against their own state, and attempt to reform the National Fascist Party.
Dissolvement
Being charged, Freda appealed and was let free with the consequence of dissolving his own political organization in 1973 to avoid any sentencing.
Inspiration
After Nazi-Maoism and Struggle of the People dissolved in 1973, other groups from different parts of Europe took inspiration from Fredas ideas and continued the idea through the late 1970s but were not as successful or active. Other organizations like Azov Battalion own a copy of Fredas writing.
