Answer :
Answer: A lack of individual civil liberties
Explanation: The characteristic of fascism is a totalitarian government with a cult of personality, where political opponents are often persecuted, and in reality there is only one political option, which is not the case with democracy where there are more political options i.e. parties.
The military as an integral part of the state apparatus is under the control of the government in any social system, it is just a question of how this army will be used, whether it is to preserve democratic values or to usurp the territory and deny human rights that is characteristic of fascism.
Freedom of speech and freedom to criticize the government is one of the rights suppressed in fascism, unless the public outcome contributes to the idea of fascism, while the same freedom of speech is one of the basic values of democracy.
Individual civil liberties are another of the values of democracy, whereas only those civil liberties that the state finds permissible in fascism are allowed, therefore, in essence, civil liberties in fascism do not exist.
