How you going to make the argument that maintaining capitalism takes you further away from fascism? Capitalism is fascism. They're intrinsically linked. The latter is the end result of the former.

Yes capitalism's end state is a monopoly on power, aka a fascist dictatorship. I never made an argument stating otherwise.

Ending Anti-Circumvention is taking power away from capitalists. They can no longer send the law to lock you in jail because you edited the firmware of a device that you own. That's a move in the opposite direction of capitalism.
