This is my version, and it explains why in America the symbolism was fascist before Europe.
America was a fantastically developed country with skyscrapers, neon signs and good cars already in the 20s, Europe lay in ruins. The aesthetics of a rapidly developing technical and bold nation is the aesthetics of futurism, what the Fascists preached. They took it from America.
Mussolini was initially at enmity with the Nazis and they were not Nazis. But then there was a coup and he entered into an alliance with Hitler.
