Capitalism to fascism in a nutshell

> be a capitalist state

> capitalist ruling class cuts public funding, lowers wages to increase profits for themselves

> resulting lower living conditions makes working class organize to overthrow capitalist rule

> ruling capitalist class crushes the leftist movements because they harm capitalists

> some capitalists blame already marginalized people for the problems to scapegoat them and shift the blame

> fascists rally people around this idea and make up myths about the country being great before these marginalized people got involved

> fascists are voted into power since socialist movements have been crushed, and not stopped by the ruling capitalist class because capitalists are not harmed

> country is now a fascist state
