So where has this occured? Obama bailed out the banks with public
funds--which remain under private ownership and run for private
profit. Socializing debt, without collective consent, and then
privatizing profit, again without collective consent (infact it is
opposed by the vast majority) is fascism

Banks, of course, are not privately owned. The Government
dictates almost every aspect through regulation and law.
Perhaps you might define 'own'.
What part of private involves government? There is ANOTHER
of your flaws.

Socialism is collective ownership--collective benefit.
MJ
And yet that is precisely the pretense of the Government and
its regulatory efforts ... the Government is the de facto owner
working toward the benefit of 'the People'.

Hitler did not have Mussolini's revolutionary
socialist background...Nevertheless, he shared
the socialist hatred and contempt for the
'bourgeoisie' and 'capitalism' and exploited
for his purposes the powerful socialist traditions
of Germany. The adjectives 'socialist' and
'worker' in the official name of Hitler's party
('The Nationalist-Socialist German Workers' Party')
had not merely propagandistic value...On one
occasion, in the midst of World war II, Hitler
even declared that 'basically National Socialism
and Marxism are the same.'
