    I’m dramatically simplifying things for the sake of a Lemmy comment.

    First, fascism is just Capitalism in decline, it isn’t meaningfully separate from Capitalism itself.

    Secondly, when I say that Marx believed Socialism to come after Capitalism because of Capitalism’s mechanisms working towards monopolist syndicates ripe for planning, that doesn’t mean Marx wasn’t also revolutionary. Such central planning and socialism can’t take place without revolution, because the proletariat needs to gain supremacy over Capital, which is impossible electorally.

    Does that clear it up?
