Fascism is a form of authoritarianism that relies on radical nationalism. In the case of Nazi Germany and Italy they used a form of capitalism. As I said before any economic system can be used by an authoritarian government for control. Thus you can find examples that shows capitalism supporting fascism as well as socialism/communism supporting other authoritarian governments. One can also find socialism and capitalism being used by free democracies. The real world and history isn’t as simple as an A + B = C statement on a poster.
If one truly thinks that, I’d suggest one read or watch more history. I know people who lived in Communist Poland who would have some choice words. The term “red fascist” was used to describe the USSR and Stalinism. The two share many similarities, including ethnic purges and deportations, even if using different economic systems.
Certainly America has its problems and a mistake as a leader currently. But I don’t see how one can even compare “a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition” between the US today and the Soviet Block. Maybe because they had less racism because they already killed or deported their undesirables?
