Fascists suck at strategy. They get short term wins because they just brazen it out and do stuff because they can, but in the cases where it only ever lasts beyond a few years it's because the original leader hangs on. They can't sustain anything.
Like, in any meaningful terms, there's never a successful transfer of power in fascist regimes. It always collapses when the leader goes.
Hilarious that the far right dunk on the commies all the time, when they're the ones who keep it going.

Like, I have no doubt that some of the actual neonazis (seriously, check out some of the T-shirts yesterday) who were storming the DC Capitol genuinely wanted to stage a coup and overturn the election. But they didn't think it through.
Like, OK, the hard left are often just as incompetent, but it's a sort of mirror opposite, all bogged down with endless minutiae of strategic thinking, splits and ideological infighting.
Meanwhile, the fash actually disdain meaningful theoretical thinking. They want to do stuff. And they get results. But it doesn't occur to them that they might get backlash, or their short sharp shocks might, as it seems is the case in the US, backfire catastrophically.
It literally didn't occur to these guys that they might not just fail but lose forever.
