It definitely got very intertwined with fascism, though. There were a lot of ideas like, "In the future, there will be no books. Books focus too much on the past, and we need to keep looking forward." The never look back mentality especially led to a lot of bad things, and it ended up directly inspiring fascism. It's pretty easy to see the close association, especially considering the Futurist Political Party got absorbed into Mussolini's party basically as soon as he created it.
