Rich Capitalists like Fritz Thyssen and Krupp

mariosousa.se/Vembetaladeoch…

Did you know that Fritz Thyssen, Germany's richest man with capital from the steel industry, was the first capitalist to start paying Hitler? He gave Hitler one hundred thousand gold marks in 1923!

Did you know that the German chemical industry discovered and manufactured artificial oil, explosives and rubber that made Hitler and Nazi Germany completely independent of importer natural products and free to wage war?

Did you know that the discoveries of the German chemical industry were made with money partly borrowed from the United States?

Did you know that the Nazis lost 2 million votes in the last democratic elections in Germany on November 6, 1932 and that the Communists had great electoral success and became the largest party in the German capital Berlin?

Did you know that after the great decline of the Nazis in the November 1932 election, 38 of Germany's greatest capitalists wrote and petitioned President Hindenburg to demand the appointment of Hitler as Chancellor?

Did you know that the German big capital in a secret meeting on February 20, 1933 collected 3 million marks to pay Chancellor Hitler's election campaign before the election March 5, 1933?

Did you know that IG Farben, Germany's largest company, was Hitler's main aide in the war and that IG Farben stole and made property of all chemical manufacturers in Nazi-occupied Europe:

Austria's largest chemical group Skoda Werke Wetzler, Czechoslovakia's largest chemical company Aussiger Verein, Poland's three chemical plants Boruta, Wola and Winnica, France's chemical group Kuhlmann.

Did you know that IG Farben in Auschwitz had two manufacturers for the production of synthetic oil and rubber under the name IG Auschwitz, where slave labor was used and that IG Auschwitz had its own concentration camp?

Did you know that Britain's King Edward VIII, who was forced to abdicate from the throne in 1936, and his American wife Wallis Simpson were Nazis?

Did you know that the largest financial institutions in the United States, such as the Chase National Bank and the National City Bank of New York, continued to invest in the German armaments industry after Hitler came to power and throughout World War II?

Did you know that during World War II, America's largest company had its own manufacturers of war materials in Nazi Germany and in the occupied countries? For example. ITT, Ford, General Motors, Standard Oil of New Jersey and others.

Did you know that most of this munitions went to the Eastern Front against the Soviet Union, but that it was also used in the war against troops from its own country, the United States?

Did you know that this US companies' war aid to Nazi Germany was probably much larger than the US's equivalent sales to the Soviet Union?

Hitler advocated for "the destruction of Marxism in all its shapes and forms".[109]

According to Hitler, Marxism was a Jewish strategy to subjugate Germany and the world and saw Marxism as a mental and political form of slavery.

”The German state is gravely attacked by Marxism”
Mein Kampf p.535
[...]
”In the years 1913 and 1914 I expressed the conviction that the question of the future of the German nation was the question of destroying Marxism”
Mein Kampf p. 155

”Marxism itself systematically plans to hand over the world to the Jews!

Mein Kampf p.382

”The Jewish doctrine of Marxism rejects the principle of nature and replaces the eternal privilege of power and strength by the mass of numbers and their dead weight.

Mein Kampf. p.60

”We stand for the maintenance of private property... We shall protects free enterprise as the most expedient, or rather the sole possible economic order...

Adolf Hitler (Heiden, The Fuhrer, p.105.

hayek is an early spreader of this bullshit narrative:

Hitler was not a marxist:

In Fascism, the state is run as a corporate, hierarchical body, where everyone is assigned a place from which they cannot deviate.

Hence, in his doctrine of fascism. Mussolini writes, 'No individuals or groups (political parties, cultural associations, economic unions, social classes) outside the State.

Fascism is therefore opposed to Socialism to which unity within the State (which amalgamates classes into a single economic and ethical reality) is unknown, and which sees in history nothing but the class struggle. Fascism is likewise opposed to trade unionism as a class weapon.

But when brought within the orbit of the State, Fascism recognizes the real needs which gave rise to socialism and trade unionism, giving them due weight in the guild or corporative system in which divergent interests are coordinated and harmonized in the unity of the State.

Likewise, in Mussolini's 'The Doctrine of Fascism', he explicitly rejects Marxism:

'Such a conception of life makes Fascism the resolute negation of the doctrine underlying so called scientific and Marxian socialism...'

..the doctrine of historic materialism which would explain the history of mankind in terms of the class struggle and by changes in the processes and instruments resolute negation of the doctrine underlying so called scientific and Marxian socialism, the doctrine"

Hell, Mussolini in the same text has a section called, 'The Rejection of Marxism':

'Having denied historic materialism, which sees in men mere puppets on the surface of history' ...

, appearing and disappearing on the crest of the waves while in the depths the real directing forces move and work, Fascism also denies the immutable and irreparable character of the class struggle which is the natural outcome of this economic conception of history;

above all it denies that the class struggle is the preponderating agent in social transformations.
Having thus struck a blow at socialism in the two main points of its doctrine, all that remains of it is the sentimental aspiration, old as humanity itself-toward social relations

in which the sufferings and sorrows of the humbler folk will be alleviated'

As the name suggests, fascism sought to bundle the folk together, like a bundle of sticks, arguing every class had its proper place, gathering them together for war. To quote Musollini again;

'[The state] is not simply a mechanism which limits the sphere of the supposed liberties of the individual...

Neither has the Fascist conception of authority anything in common with that of a police ridden State...

Far from crushing the individual, the Fascist State multiplies his energies, just as in a regiment a soldier is not diminished but multiplied by the number of his fellow soldiers'
This is NOWHERE NEAR what Marx was writing about when he wrote of direct democracy in the commune

and the abolition of the state, money and classes.

Musollini, like all fascists, was a virulent anti-communist. During the coalition period.

Mussolini appointed a classical liberal economist, Alberto De Stefani, originally a stalwart leader in the Center Party as Italy’s Minister of Finance, who advanced economic liberalism, along with minor privatization.

Before his dismissal in 1925, Stefani "simplified the tax code, cut taxes, curbed spending, liberalized trade restrictions and abolished rent controls", where the Italian economy grew more than 20 percent, and unemployment fell 77 percent, under his influence.
