It is not 'the revolt of the petty bourgeoisie which has captured the machinery of the state,' as the British <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Socialist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Socialist</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Brailsford" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Brailsford</span></a> declares. No, fascism is not a power standing above class, nor government of the petty bourgeoisie or the lumpen-proletariat over finance capital. Fascism is the power of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FinanceCapital" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FinanceCapital</span></a> itself. It is the organization of terrorist vengeance against the working class and the revolutionary section of the peasantry and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/intelligentsia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>intelligentsia</span></a>. In foreign policy, fascism is <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/jingoism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>jingoism</span></a> in its most brutal form, fomenting bestial hatred of other nations.</p><p>"This, the true character of fascism, must be particularly stressed because in a number of countries, under cover of social demagogy, fascism has managed to gain the following of the mass of the petty bourgeoisie that has been dislocated by the crisis, and even of certain sections of the most backward strata of the proletariat. These would never have supported fascism if they had understood its real character and its true nature." </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Corporatism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Corporatism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Colonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Colonialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CorporateColonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CorporateColonialism</span></a></p>
