cite your sources because it basically always goes exactly like this. fascism is just capitalist greed going mask off, and it always results in mass scale theft and grift, and with us, the regular folk, getting tortured for not being born wealthy. it only ever ends with living conditions getting so bad that a war breaks out in which us, the regular folk, storm the fascist trenches and bunkers to oust them and take back what was always ours. what's more, is that consistently we, the regular folk, always get sold out by the elites who decided to take our side right at the very end, allowing fascism to survive enough to come back around a century later. that's what Hannah Arendt was warning us about in her nuremberg trials testimony. that the world leaders putting the nazis on trial weren't so different from the nazis themselves when you get right down to it. and then it happened: project paperclip brought the nazis best and brightest to the west, and what did they do? plant the seeds of fascism to arise again.
