Well, being an advocate for Classical Liberalism is being on the Far-Right, in our modern day political spectrum.

"Capitalism will always need fascism." Wrong. There is no connection between Capitalism and Fascism in the first place. Fascism was a socialist 3rd position ideology and strictly anti-capitalist. Go read some history.

@yuliusseraph4973 "Both nazis and fascists promoted private property ... Both Mussolini and Hitler said that private property and '''entrepreneurship''' are core of their respective ideologies." Wrong. They did not. Both of them promoted state controlled property, which was conditional, meaning you were allowed to "own" things as long as you bent the knee to the state and did what they told you to do. Statism was the key to everything, thanks to the nationalist and collectivist discourse, all the efforts of the citizens had to be in favor of the State.

You have no clue what the Far-Right means.

True, however being an advocate for Classical Liberalism is, in our modern day political spectrum.

@RedzicMuharem : You are talking about the far-left. This has nothing to do with far-right whatsoever.

@yuliusseraph4973 "people who say that fascism is 'anti-capitalist' and 'socialist' need to go to read history. " They literally say it themselves. Let's take a quote from "the Philosophy of Fascism" by Mario Palmieri. "Fascism, which is the very antithesis of Individualism, stands as the nemesis of all economic doctrines and all economic practice of both the capitalistic and the communistic systems." of from "the Doctrine of Fascism" by Mussolini and Giovanni Gentile. "Fascism is definitely and absolutely opposed to the doctrines of liberalism, both in the political and the economic sphere"

@yuliusseraph4973 "Both had mass privatizations against the historical trend of nationalization in Europe 20s-30s Europe at the time." Wrong. They did not. There was no privatization of any kind in Nazi Germany, and only some privatization in Italy during 1922 to 1925 (Alberto de' Stefani), before Mussolini's one-party dictatorship. During 1930s, it was all about nationalization.

@yuliusseraph4973 "Whenever says that fascism and capitalism are mutually exclusive, they are making an ideological liberal argument that relies on their own very specific interpretation of capitalism where capitalism is always good big chungus, therefore it can't be connected to fascism, which is bad." Wrong. Fascism was by definition anti-capitalist, since it was a socialist ideology based on National Syndicalism.

@yuliusseraph4973 "'Fascism and Big Business' is a great book about this which explores how capitalists, namely industrialists, sponsored fascist coups and were active party participants. " They sponsored both Fascism and National Socialism in the beginning, since they were against the Marxist uprising. The fact that the capitalists and entrepreneurs, faced with the alternative of Marxism or Fascism/Nazism, chose the latter, does not require any further explanation. They preferred to live as shop managers than to be "liquidated" as "bourgeois" by Marxists. Capitalists don't like to be killed any more than other people do.

@yuliusseraph4973 " I wonder where the term privatization came from... it was coined to describe nazis economic policy." It came from and was coined by some random journalist in 'the Economist' magazine back in the day. Nothing to do with Nazi economic policies. Nazis themselves used the word "Gleichschaltung", which meant a system of totalitarian control and coordination over all aspects of German society and societies occupied by Nazi Germany from the economy and trade associations to the media, culture and education. "To put it quite clearly: we have an economic programme. Point No. 13 in that programme demands the nationalisation of all public companies, in other words socialisation, or what is known here as socialism. … the basic principle of my Party’s economic programme should be made perfectly clear and that is the principle of authority… the good of the community takes priority over that of the individual. But the State should retain control; every owner should feel himself to be an agent of the State; it is his duty not to misuse his possessions to the detriment of the State or the interests of his fellow countrymen. That is the overriding point. The Third Reich will always retain the right to control property owners. If you say that the bourgeoisie is tearing its hair over the question of private property, that does not affect me in the least. Does the bourgeoisie expect some consideration from me?… Today’s bourgeoisie is rotten to the core; it has no ideals any more; all it wants to do is earn money and so it does me what damage it can. The bourgeois press does me damage too and would like to consign me and my movement to the devil.“ — Adolf Hitler, Hitler's interview with Richard Breiting, 1931, published in Edouard Calic, ed.

@yuliusseraph4973 "Literally any serious book on economic history of nazi Germany will mention it." Wrong. They do not. You should start from "the Vampire Economy" by Günter Reimann.

@yuliusseraph4973 There are many, for example their nationalization was noted in the Time magazine. I highly suggest checking out that book for more. "Most cruel joke of all, however, has been played by Hitler & Co. on those German capitalists and small businessmen who once backed National Socialism as a means of saving Germany's bourgeois economic structure from radicalism. The Nazi credo that the individual belongs to the state also applies to business. Some businesses have been confiscated outright, on others what amounts to a capital tax has been levied. Profits have been strictly controlled. Some idea of the increasing Governmental control and interference in business could be deduced from the fact that 80% of all building and 50% of all industrial orders in Germany originated last year with the Government. Hard-pressed for foodstuffs as well as funds, the Nazi regime has taken over large estates and in many instances collectivized agriculture, a procedure fundamentally similar to Russian Communism." "Adolf Hitler: Man of the Year, 1938", Time; January 2, 1939.

He is advocating for Classical Liberalism, which is a Far-Right ideology in our modern day political spectrum.
