I mean I was semi-ironic in that while soc-democracy stabilizes capitalism from the ‘left’ while fascism does it from the right, and they have a kind of symbiotic relationship made evident in capitalist crises, there are too many differences in terms of ideology, behaviour and how they govern for me to feel at all really comfortable in literally identifying them. They are both pro-capitalist but they have different structures, functions and mechanisms within capitalism.
