The rise of German and Italian fascism in the twentieth century took
place in the context of severe splits within the ruling classes of these
societies. Dynamic new capitalist sectors, especially advanced
manufacturing, could not find space within existing state institutions
for the expression of their political power. In response, they came to
cultivate and support radical forces — fascist parties — which would
restructure the state to accommodate their emerging supremacy within
their national economies.
The riots in Washington have not emerged from such a division within the
ruling elite and have left the American capitalist class more unified
than ever. They have not only extended their support to liberal
democratic state processes in general, but also to the Democratic Party
and Joe Biden in particular.
