“Democracy sustains capitalism. Capitalism thrives in a democracy. And, right now, we are dealing with, as I called him at my speech on the Ellipse, a tyrant,” she said, referencing her rally last year on the White House Ellipse in Washington. “We used to compare the strength of our democracy to communist dictators. That’s what we’re dealing with right now in Donald Trump. And these titans of industry are not speaking up,”

She was never a good pick for the role. She should have faded into obscurity after losing the primary in 2020.
Capitalism leads to corporate monopolies leads to fascism.

Humans are always the problem. Plans don’t meet humans well.
Fascism is a tool that capitalists use when capitalism is threatened by rising class consciousness. It’s not something that a society just “falls into.” Also, fascism is ideologically the opposite of communism. You can have a communist dictatorship, but you’re not going to find a fascist version.
It hasn’t “led” to anything; Marxist-Leninism is explicitly authoritarian. That said, it’s not fascism, that is not what that word means.
We’re on our second run of capitalism leading to fascism across the Western world in the exact same way along the exact same fault lines.
An economic system isn’t a plan; it’s the context within which economic activity (including said plans) take place.

No I don’t think your AND should be added to what I’m saying. You can say that elsewhere as it’s own standalone. Ty.
