"Students pushing for divestment [..] can no longer argue against the malfeasance of a handful of nefarious companies. They must also confront the overarching system of #FinanceCapital guiding the ways their #universities now accrue value."

@wauz @LordCaramac Wow! So, pretty much, #capitalism is #fascism!

"Fascism is not a form of state power 'standing above both classes -- the proletariat and the bourgeoisie,' as Otto Bauer, for instance, has asserted. It is not 'the revolt of the petty bourgeoisie which has captured the machinery of the state,' as the British #Socialist #Brailsford declares. No, fascism is not a power standing above class, nor government of the petty bourgeoisie or the lumpen-proletariat over finance capital. Fascism is the power of #FinanceCapital itself. It is the organization of terrorist vengeance against the working class and the revolutionary section of the peasantry and #intelligentsia. In foreign policy, fascism is #jingoism in its most brutal form, fomenting bestial hatred of other nations.

"This, the true character of fascism, must be particularly stressed because in a number of countries, under cover of social demagogy, fascism has managed to gain the following of the mass of the petty bourgeoisie that has been dislocated by the crisis, and even of certain sections of the most backward strata of the proletariat. These would never have supported fascism if they had understood its real character and its true nature."
