so your point is capitalists always enable fascists and therefore cant be antifascist?
99.99999% of right wingers are not capitalists, capitalists are the people who own capital, the owners of the companies, not regular people
Just like in feudalism, there are feudal lords, and peasants, some peasants may have supported feudalism, but the feudalists are the feudal lords who owned the land, not the peasants
When feudalism was overthrown, feudal lords were overthrown, not the peasants
But my point is, right wingers' arguments, if followed to their natural conclusion, lead to fascism
To be a right winger and be anti-fascist you must put a limit on your support of capitalism, based on your morality letting you know "Hey, this is messed up", because otherwise you have no argument against their economic plan, because their plan is full support of capitalists, which is what right wingers support, they just take it to its conclusion: "Hey, capitalism is good, so let's use the state to help capitalists, since what they're doing is good"
Capitalism is like exposure to risk factors of cancer, fascism is cancer, workers' organisations ( like unions or co-operatives ) are like the cancer vaccine, they overthrow capitalist social relations ( that of someone owning the capital, and someone else doing the work using that capital, like for example, factory owners own the factory and the machinery and collect the profits, but they don't do the work that the workers do with the machinery, they don't build the factory, they don't transport the machinery, they don't maintain the factory, they just pay someone else, the workers, to do all those things, their role is purely owning it and collecting profits because they own it ), by putting the workers as the owners of the capital, instead of some dude sitting around who just owns it and does no work

Also, capitalist does not mean rich person, capitalist means owner of capital
If I become such a good programmer or engineer, that I get paid millions or dozens of millions of dollars, that does not make me a capitalist
The only way I can be a capitalist, is by owning capital, a part of a company for example, or an entire company
And technically anyone can buy stocks but if you own just 0.000000001% you practically own nothing, those who own 10, 20, 30, 50% actually own the capital and make the decisions
The term for rich person who gets rich through their work, is labour aristocracy, you are rich yeah, like an aristocrat, but you are rich through your labour, not through owning capital
Socialist movements say the labour aristocracy can be bribed by the capitalists into supporting capitalism, because if capitalism gets overthrown, the labour aristocracy loses their privileged roles, but socialism is not looking to overthrow the labour aristocracy, socialism is looking to overthrow capitalism, the capitalists' power
