Could you explain what you mean by that and why the distinction does matter?

Yeah, of course.

I borrow this term derivative fascism from the German professor and artist and lecturer Hito Sterl, who presents it in a book several years ago, but doesn't quite develop the concept as far as I think it can be taken.

I think there's a few things to say here.

The word derivative at first connotes something that is insufficiently original.

Like if you speak about an artwork as being derivative, it means it's too much indebted or too imitative of another artwork.

It's usually a kind of an art world slur to say that something is not good, essentially.
