Do we have good theory explaining that fascism is within capitalism's essence?

    Is the best article I have seen on this topic.

    I would probably even go further than this article. There is no special significance of fascism, both liberalism and fascism are the actions/ideologies of the same actors in service of the same system. Creating a division between the 2 and then treating 1 as a special threat leaves us with confused tactics.

    The category of fascism is to take seriously the PR of say, someone like Al capone as a dignified mobster in comparison to the brutish ones.

    Our analysis of threats should be far more fine grained and far more materialistic.

    Gabriel Rockhill just gave a 10 min talk about this 2 days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8S1N4F-IPio

    He’s not the first to say this stuff, but he does bring it together nicely.
