I think the narrative that fascism and communism are "opposite ends" of some relevant spectrum are flawed. I also disagree that historically "communist" countries are truly communist/socialist, when they often maintained they lived up to certain ideals that they didn't - where does Marx promote purges, for example? Those nations are no more left/liberal than the Nazi party is socialist.
- kggbcsehn 6y agoYeah they're the same ruling structure, the only difference is that Communism enforces a Marx-like or Marx-derived ideology as the only allowed belief system and fascism doesn't have a well defined ideology, it's just used as another word for authoritarian. Fascism honestly doesn't even have a great definition outside of historical fascism
