In the intellectuality of capitalism there are two alternative ways
to conceive of reality: the moderate one, which mediates
dialectically, and the revolutionary one, which also comprises
ruptures with disappearance. The former conforms to, and helps
shape, the metaphysics of capitalism itself. The second is akin to
the mode of progressing of nature in general, and forms the basis
for materialism. Moderate positions tend to be intolerant because
they do not recognize the other, which is constantly compelled to
mediate. Revolutionary positions instead, recognizing the other,
are tolerant and intrinsically non-violent. In capitalism as we
know it liberalism, Marxism and anarchism would potentially be
revolutionary. But they have been transformed in moderate modes of
thought, similar for instance to nationalism, communitarianism,
Christian ideas, fascism, socialism. Thus capitalism has become an
intolerant world that seems built to block, by means of mediations,
its own historical evolution. The outcome is a fascistic economy
and polity.
