I think that's kinda a trope along the lines of the "hard men create soft men" saying.
In reality fascism is a reactionary response to the very idea of democracy itself. It's not completely economical in nature, which makes defining fascism when you see it harder a lot of the time.
As we saw with German and Italian fascism, there will of course be collaboration with capital, but a Hallmark of fascist is that they are at times completely fine with socializing private equity, usually as a way to further their culturally conservative goals.
Fascism is the reactionary response to social equity. It propagates itself by releasing havoc into the political hierarchy and then proclaiming only they can fix the system they broke themselves.
