"I'm not a Communist, but I agree with the the Communist-Trotskyite theory that Fascism is just the final decadent phase of capitalism. Having trashed the economy and plunged the majority of the population into destitution, the oligarchs and their political minions begin to call for "discipline," "national unity," and "cultural/racial regeneration," a return to the mythical glory days of an imaginary past. Internal and external enemies are identified and the masses are mobilized for collective violence against the imaginary threats. It's all just a bloody distraction to deflect blame from the elites who caused the misery in the first place. One astute observer in the pre-Nazi German government stated that Hitler was hoisted into power by a cabal of Westphalian bankers, Rhineland steel magnates and East-Prussian land barons. With their lackeys in power, the traditional grandees wealth and status are guaranteed by some self-serving Socio-Darwinist ideology and, or naked force. The political structure is simply a hatchet squad for the bosses. If anyone in the movement begins to call for tinkering with established social order, redistribution of wealth etc., they end up like Gregor Strasser, and Ernst Roehm, dead. Not long before the rise of European Fascism, the Robber Baron Jay Gould is supposed to have said that he wasn't afraid of revolution because he could always hire half the working class to murder the other half. Nazis/Fascists can be seen as Gould's paid help in uniform."

The German working class was pretty happy under Hitler. Low-income workers were treated to vacations and other leisure activities paid for by the government. Look up the Strength Through Joy. I hate how leftists think that the Nazis were laissez-faire capitalists

Dumb. He claims to not be a communist, yet buys into the Marxist view of linear history completey. A nation goes in cycles that repeat until destroyed outright. What he calls late capitalism is a period in which a decadent society has forgotten what virtues made it wealthy to begin with. In the previous time is when those with wealth had siezed upon oppertunity to get thier wealth to begin with. But thier descendents do not have the virtues of thier fathers and do not expand. With no growth it stagnates and they hold onto what wealth there is and pass laws to shut down competition so it is not taken from them. With no room to grow, the underclass falls to vice. With vice comes the horror of its consequences. The upper class pushed it because it was bread and circus. Then the outward force of progress reaches a point weaker than the inward pressure of decay. The situation worsens and an upswell of change comes as a demand to return to previous form comes. The upper class does not create the facist backlash. It tries to maintain status quo. Communists claim it does because national socialism and facism are in competition with it. But whereas the Nazis want to reclaim the wealth of the nation for the people and take it back from the kikes, the communist is a kike that projects his true intentions of being the new master.

Just asking that tells me you're really fucking new. That's fine, I was 14 once. But "what /pol/ thinks" is of no consequence, everyone here should either form their own opinion or lurk more. What do you think? Did Hitler's rise to power benefit German industrialists? Probably true, in a good sense. But the vicious attacks by (((international banking elites))) harmed said industrialists much more. So the fascist rise to power wasn't good business for any of them. And it certainly didn't benefit those who practiced usury.

You realize QTDDTOT is for "dumb" questions right? Why do you feel the need to be condescending?

After reading this post I can only reach the conclusion that fascism is everything the soviet union did
