Fascism is the inevitable result of all government. Government is an accumulation of power, and it continues to accumulate power throughout its existence. Over the generations, it acquires more and more power exponentially.

Every self serving entity desires to accumulate power.
The same can be said of anything that serves itself and can last beyond a single generation. A family, a commune, a group of like minded individuals, a business or a corporation, etc.
The goal should be for the organization to serve it’s membership and for the organization’s membership to include everyone. Capitalism’s values and incentives are inherently self serving. Most capitalist “market theory” assumes, if not requires, self serving participants. Its an inherently self-destructive system.
Mussolini was trying to push that particular economic agenda at the time he said that. He is generally credited with being the father of modern fascism, but Mussolini himself waffled between different economic policies as he rose to power and led Italy through WWII.
You can be a fascist and an oligarch, socialist, communist, capitalist, etc…
The soviets did not merge corporate and state power, they abolished the bourgeois state and established a socialist state. The fascist route would have been to support the Provisional Government protecting bourgeois interests.
Not even capitalism right now, it’s full on fascism.

Fascism is a form of capitalism, aka corpratism
Fascism is economically agnostic.
Corporations only exist within the capitalist model
So Stalin was a corporatist?

I wish liberals would learn that fascism isn’t just a synonym for “thing I don’t like”
I’m curious what you think fascism actually is.
No, Stalin was a dictator, and authoritarian (like all states are). You’re mixing up facism and authoritarianism maybe?
Uhhh, that is some wild oversimplification
Like, we’re probably sharing the same sentiment all in all, but shut up
That’s exactly how Mussolini described it actually. Don’t believe me, read the wiki
