    Definitely no. Relevant passage from the beginning of the manifesto:

    an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes.

    Capitalism eventually failing is inevitable, whether in 50 years or 500, but what comes after is an open question.

        Fascism is not an economic project, it has nothing to 'replace' capitalism with. It merely takes the social unrest that builds up under capitalism and directs it away from the owning class -- toward whatever scapegoat is most convenient to hand; minorities, immigrants, LGBT, women. The relationship of people to the production of goods remains identical.

        No, fascism is a way to organize society under capitalism, it can't really exist outside of it. Theoretically, capitalism could evolve into another more reactionary system, but looking at historical precedents that seems less likely than either complete societal collapse or progressing (ie. socialism).
