Sorry, my comment wasn’t clear, so I edited a couple of new lines in.
David Foster Wallace was an American writer that didn’t support any fascist government that I know of. His writing is apolitical, as far as I know.
D’Annunzio was an Italian writer and poet that explicitly supported Mussolini’s fascist government. D’Annunzio lead some really bold (and somewhat stupid) military undertaking during WWII.
