I assume you mean fascism is simply better at encouraging these things at the cost of more authoritarianism, because you can have these under a capitalist system.

No capitalism always erodes all of those things and if they do exist side by side it's because capitalism has not yet destroyed them but is diligently working on it. There is nothing more revolutionary than capitalism and nothing that has less respect for tradition, borders, faith, race, nation, customs and genuine culture than capitalism. Even Communism STOPPED trying to destroy all of these things eventually while Western leftists found the perfect Devil's bargain which was Chicago School economics and Frankfurt School morals.

Capitalism and humanity are incompatible and anyone who hasn't realized that is a stupid fool who should go back to posting the Eyeferth study for the hundredth time.

I can agree that capitalism is eroding these values although I think you're also exaggerating it. In any case I'll probably read more on the topic and how fascism works.

I found out the wikipedia article on that was wrong about the percentages so I have no reason to use it anymore.
