Fascism doesn't have an intellectual tradition, or higher principle outside of serving capital and upholding liberal property relations amd hierarchies. So i suppose that's why i lump them in with the rest of the libs.
Am I i completely off base with this? Is it a gray area, or a clear break?
I also think this is wrong. Fascism is baked into the borders of liberalism. Liberalism isnt abandoned, it's just the face of liberalism which always faces outside now needing to turn inward. There's never been a single instance of liberalism that didn't either 1. Have the outward facing fascism like the US to indigenous peoples or now towards the periphery or 2. Was the outside but with a government which accepted the periphery status and invited the expropriation as long as the class in power got to too.
Fascists aren't libs, though. Fascism is capitalism that has abandoned liberalism in order to fight communism.
I suppose that's fair.
