Fascism has always been done by and for Capitalists.

You...literally just linked a list of suppliers to a regime. Which, of course, had to exist in order for the regime to be sustained. Which of course lost supply as the sustainability diminished.

Do you know how many companies were passive or against it? It's a little more... Quite a bit more. Millions(?) more. You've essentially just tried to correlated registered businesses with the entire economic school of Capitalism. "If it's a registered business, it's Capitalism, huuur."

Come on, I can think of better counter-points than that.

Wait, did you think people were saying that the Nazis were for every Capitalist on the planet? No, we were talking about Nazi Germany and some Western companies.

You've fundamentally misunderstood what everyone was talking about.

Superman, Homelander, and fascism on the rise in the leading capitalism nation?

What did you think it was about?

Fascism has always been beneficial for Capitalists, because it was always extremely profitable, the entire point of fascism. Simple.

Literally, that was one of my points...

Where are you trying to go with this?
