The liberal establishment doesn't want fascism either, but they basically invite it by squashing the left, and continually trying to turn out the same slow moving technocratic and means tested solutions even as it slowly grinds us towards fascism still. Fascism is capitalism in decay. When the problems of capitalism rear it's ugly head, it always resorts to fascism to get back control, assigning blame to some local minorities, giving power to rich people, doing some imperialism or foreign wars to get resources or distract the populace, and killing all the people on the left who suggest alternative solutions (I.e. socialists and communists).
It's annoying to see it coming from so far away and feeling so utterly powerless =( The same cycle over and over in history yet we never learn. Hopefully we can steer off before it's too late but there's no organization in this country for a better solution.
