As Walter Benjamin put it:
Benjamin argued that the offer of “culture for all” can prove disastrous where there is no coincident shift in material relations. Such a situation can lead ultimately to a frustrated population, open to exploitation by essentially right-wing populists (or in Benjamin’s era the fascists who at the time governed over Italy and Germany, with Spain shortly to follow). To quote the essay: The masses have a right to change property relations; Fascism seeks to give them an expression while preserving property. The logical result of Fascism is the introduction of aesthetics into political life
