Trump diplomacy - 2017-02-11

Is the present time in Europe and in the USA getting more and more similar
the beginning of fascism in Europe?

Fascism has become a meaningless term, primarily because globalization has forever changed the nature of corporations.

Perhaps in North Korea the state can still fully direct industrial activity, but even in China 'corporate' power is quickly slipping out of the party's control or, perhaps more accurately, infiltrating and corrupting the party.

Mussolini's ability to merge production, labor, and capital with national interests is no longer possible in the West.

This does not mean that heads of state cannot be dictators, they simply have diminished control of industrial activity, which is the hallmark of traditional fascism.

ALL U.S. presidents are tools of corporate elites, not the reverse. Xi Jinping is struggling as we speak to maintain control, which is why elites disappear in HK.
