Sutton has stated before that he considered Capitalism (at least modern capitalism) to be on the same plane as Socialism, Fascism and Communism. I dont understand why everyone keeps screaming "right wing looney propaganda" while Sutton does dubiously leave quite a few vital details out. Like the Hoover institute harboring a den of Steering Committee paid for CFR members. But Sutton goes right at Crony Capitalism and points out private companies and individuals influencing politics and regime changes. Its amazing people cant see that he obviously had a change of heart at the end of his time as an intellectual and decided to blow the whistle. Funny because i could never imagine Chomsky or Zinn saying a word about Socialist-Capitalist collusion

well, he was a right libertarian - he was just an educated right libertarian. that fact that he didn't buy into any of the mainstream, you know....john birch society type propaganda...on the still-contemporary libertarian right doesn't contradict his right libertarianism. it just means he didn't buy into any of the nonsense that circles around it. he even had to go out of his way to deny he was pushing a jewish banking conspiracy.

he's always very clearly uncomfortable with the language he uses, but chooses it in order to get through to his audience. he fully realized they weren't actually socialists, but merely wealthy industrialists taking advantage of closed economies to corner foreign markets. it's not socialist-capitalist collusion; it's just capitalism. that's abundantly clear in his writing, but was a little harder to state in public at the height of the cold war.

+deathtokoalas he's criticizing gangsterism of all types. I acknowledge that he couches his language in euphemisms like socialist and wall street. But, he genuinely went after WASP elite, Yale bankers and Nat Security elite who would not have been Jewish nor Lefists or communists or socialists. Corporate Fascism is really what he's attacking, if you break it down its just corporations and private individuals using states as their private armies and resource supply. Sutton had to be subtle in his understanding of collusion between Capitalists and Soviets.
