Not contradicting, trying to learn here. How is it a feature of capitalism, and not fascism? Or are the two similar enough they can effectively be put in the same group?
Eh … capitalism is an economic model, fascism is political. One may enable or encourage the other, but I think it’s a bit of an exaggeration to say they are the same.
What causes fascism to rise or fall? Whose interests does it serve? The economy is political, politics are economic in nature, you cannot divorce the two.
That’s like saying that since you never see deer ticks except with deer, they are the same animal as the deer. Just because things commonly appear together does not mean they are the same.

Fascism is Capitalism in decline. They aren’t distinct systems, but the same one meshed.

No, it isn’t. The economy forms the Base, while politics forms the Superstructure. You cannot have one without the other, and they are tangled.
Thanks for sharing that picture of two different things in your attempt to argue that they are one thing.
They aren’t the same, but are never found without each other.
That… Is a completely different argument.
