    Would unfettered Fascism and Billionaires exist? The leader would just take all their wealth. Look at North Korea.

      If you could define fascism, you would know that they’re very compatible. In fact, liberalism turns to fascism to save capitalists from Consequences™

      NK isn’t fascist, buddy. Authoritarian, yes. Communist, mostly. Feudal, quite a bit. But not fascist.

      Fascism is the marriage of the state and corporations to protect both from growing resentment, using nationalism to distract the public from their actual troubles.

        Now I’m not sure if you are trolling because that sounds an awful lot like NK… They don’t have corporations like in your definition but they do have very powerful syndicates who influence and manage any internal conflict.

          Which are the similarities between fascism and communism I guess, the differences being a merger of private companies as opposed to a grouping of government ones.
