How brutal was daily life under Mussolini's dictatorship? How widespread was the use of violence?

by History_Student83

While im familiar with life under Hitler and to some extent with life under Franco, I hear very little about life under mussolini. Infact I've even heard some claim that Mussolini was some sort of beneveolent dictator (A fact I utterly REPUDIATE!!!).

But nonetheless while I know of his war crimes, I don't know much about what things wer like on the domestic front.
