Fascism and Capitalism are not opposed. Much rather, fascism is born from capitalist countries, where the owning class controls the media and the government.

Manipulation of markets is also not contradictory to capitalism. The markets are manipulated by capitalists after all.

Finally, the past has proven, that capitalism doesn't need fascism to create crises.

    This is circular. Communist ideals have also degraded to militant authoritative states. I'm not beating a Pro-capitalist drum, but this concept that theres a clearly superior ideology is so reductionist and boring.

    I believe you are thinking of Marxist-Leninist ideals. They call themselves communist, but they believe that they can bring about a stateless society (communism) by seizing state power, which is deranged. You cannot achieve a goal through actions that are opposed to said goal.
