Sorry if this isn’t the right community for this, but I need to ask this.
A few weeks ago before r/thedeprogram got banned I saw someone on it say something about fascism and the petite bourgeoisie. I don’t remember the exact wording but it was something like that the petite bourgeois command and establish fascism, and that fascism is the peak of the petite bourgeois. Sorry if this doesn’t give y’all much to work with as I don’t really remember the exact wording but I don’t really understand how it is especially the petite bourgeois and not just the entire bourgeoisie. Why the emphasis on the Petite bourgeois and not the entire class?
Thanks comrades!! ≽(•⩊ •マ≼
Fascism arises from the class despair of the petit bourgeois. They see their position being weakened and seek to hold onto it through any means necessary. Socialist revolution isn’t a way out for them because that deprives them of their superior socio-economic position above the working class. I think I got this from Trotsky or Gramsci though I can’t remember which. Maybe this is what you are looking for?
