    Capitalism doesn’t mind Fascism. But that doesn’t mean it is Fascism.

        Strongly hierarchical militaristic authoritarian control predates capitalism. Hell it predates the invention of money.

        There’s a good chance that money was invented to help raise armies.

        If anything, I’d say fascism is the basis for capitalism, not the other way round.

        Might be the dumbest thing I’ve read today.

        But well, I bite. Pls elaborate why an open market enables fascism.

          Open market has nothing to do with capitalism. Both communism and socialism can have open markets, as well as feudalism and mercantilism.

          To answer the underlying question, fascism is the combination of state and corporate power, according to the father of fascism.
