These freaks are fascists. Benito Mussolini himself said that Fascism would be more accurately titled "Corporatism," and the term "privatization" was coined by the Nazis to describe their economic program throughout the 1930s.

The ultranationalism found within past fascist movements is not especially similar to the post WTO neoliberal who wants to see the total destruction of the nation state as an institution.
There's a reason why it's the rising national conservative movement, rather than the left, that represents the most meaningful challenge to the anti nationalist liberal order when the opposite was true when fascism was rising as a status quo economic platform.
