Even choosing to overlook all of the atrocities that happened since the 1940s—the wars on Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Indonesian communists, &c.—I honestly still think that Fascism should be reason enough to abolish capitalism.

In a more reasonable world, the working masses would be outraged to learn that the bourgeoisie chose Fascism repeatedly, that capitalists from Imperial America, the British Empire, France, the Spanish State, Norway, Liechtenstein, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Southeastern Europe, as well as elsewhere supported Fascism, and that capitalists benefited from Axis atrocities; the working masses would abolish capitalism so that its atrocities could never recur. It would not bring back the North Africans, East Africans, Balkanites, Roma, Sinti, Jews, Poles, Soviets, LGBT+ people, and countless others whom the Fascists annihilated, but one could argue that it would have atoned for the oppression that they suffered.

Sadly, given the widespread inaction in response to the Epstein files and whatnot, I think that the painful truth is that even if everybody in the lower classes knew the links between capitalism and Fascism, the outrage would not be enough to motivate them to abolish capitalism. I like to think that it will at least contribute to some minor extent, but overall the biggest drive to abolish capitalism is going to be economic pressure, not outrage.

So I’ll continue to study as well as share my findings. If I can make you surer than ever before in your hatred for the upper classes, if I can convince even only one person to give up on anticommunism, and if I can bring a future generation question why we did not abolish capitalism sooner, I’ll consider all of my work here to have been worthwhile.
