- "The meaning of faschism is always confounded by the faschists themselves, since when they have controlled a society, they see to it that none inside their society calls them faschists. It is in the very nature of faschism to call the other ones faschist, but never themselves."

Etymology
Probably often directly influenced by German Faschismus. However, the misspelling can also arise independently from this due to the fact that sc does not commonly represent /ʃ/ in English, while sch sometimes does (as in schedule, schmooze, schwa).
