Fascism is Capitalism's immune system, activated when the wealth gap gets too large.

Activated when the people get's too aware of the exploitation and begins fighting back

If it's protecting capitalism, wouldn't you mean when the wealth gap is too small? As in it is a driving force of the wealth gap?

Fascism is a defense mechanism against Communism.
