      Fascism was always anti-capitalist. This Nation piece shows that modern fascists are no exception https://www.thenation.com/article/the-racist-right-looks-left/ …

      Fascists were so anti-capitalists they jailed socialist & communists, crushed independent unions, empowered big business, which became much more profitable.

          You'd almost think the U.S. hasn't dangerously conflated corporate power and the power of the state and its capacity for violence for decades. Very non-fascist 🙄

          They wanted total control of society - hence totalitarianism. Orban isn’t so different today. If you want to succeed in bios Ines’s in Hungary you must pay bribes and stay out of politics

          Fascism isn't anti-capitalist at all...it just requires the subordination of capitalism to the non-economic imperatives of the ethno-nationalist dictatorship.

          As for crushing independent unions, isn't that what Soviet Union etc. did? Not anti-capitalist eh? Empowered big business? Sure the ones that were favorable to the regime. Also happened in Chavez Venezuela, didn't stop left intelligentsia from fawning over his anti-capitalism.

          That guy is quite dumb. Remember that Pinochet guy? Put in power by Chicago school assholes? I think Spencer's denouncement of capitalism is more because Jews, and because as an intellectually bankrupt movement, they have to steal other people's ideas.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_dictatorship_of_Chile_(1973%E2%80%9390) …
