Because opposing fascism requires force, and we have disempowered individuals from that kind of action, in favor of our political apparatus solving it... but our political apparatus is not trying to solve it, because money has taken over everything, and fascism is perfectly compatible with corporatism and capitalism.

Corporatist Democrats would rather risk fascism than they would risk losing their cushy lifestyles.
