Fascism is a characteristic of capitalist economies - it cannot exist without capitalism.

So no.

Yeas, in the sense that fascism is borne in capitalism, but it's also marks the end of capitalism and what comes after.

but it’s also marks the end of capitalism and what comes after.

No, it doesn't. Fascism poses no threat to capitalism and never has - that's the whole reason capitalists eagerly fund fascists into power. Some fascists might dislike capitalism - such as Franco, for instance - but that doesn't mean fascism can exist without it in any way, shape or form.

Oh you got me wrong, of course fascism is created to serve capitalists, but after the fascist power grab, they don't need to have the theatre of freedom™ and markets anymore.
