What if we switch the 'economic impact of Treaty of Versailles' for 'economic impact of the Great Depression' ? Then wouldn't have a crisis in capitalism triggered a rise in fascism?
Plus, as we see today, many business owners join hard right to far right movement when they fear crisis might push people toward revolutionary left. I think that's what is meant when saying nazism build upon capitalism defeat.
That would be more applicable, yes, though I would still point to numerous other factors as more important.
