2: Your examples all overthrew the rule of absolute monarchies, neither of which was quite exactly capitalist thanks to the owner class often being nobility.

If anything, based on the characters used, it implies the fight over institutional power as the fascists try to seize control.

Strongmen like Lenin and Stalin who provided direction and certainty in uncertain times?
