Benito Mussolini: Fascism should rightly be called Corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power.
Tommy Douglas: Once more let me remind you what fascism is. It need not wear a brown shirt or a green shirt—it may even wear a dress shirt. Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy, begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege.
Really, capitalism started sometime after 1925? And yet Das Kapital was written about 150 years ago, building on David Ricardo’s early 19th century work and Adam Smith’s 18th century work.
A Wikipedia-level understanding of the history of capitalism shows that this isn’t “revisionist history.”
I’ve been here ten times longer than you, and I don’t intend to go anywhere. In my experience people who fling insults and bot accusations everywhere they go don’t usually last very long. You’ve already managed to get yourself permabanned from several communities and at least one instance.

Capitalism goes back at least as far as the English enclosure of the commons, which left peasants with no option but to sell their labor to burghers, AKA the bourgeoisie. The American Revolution was a bourgeois revolution[1].
