What’s confusing about it 😭

like what's the point? are zionists supposed to be pro-communism? it's somehow ironic that modern zionists don't align themselves with nazi propaganda from nearly 100 years ago?

That they’re both racist and fascist ideologies predicated on violence and oppression and that’s why anti-communism and antisemitism go hand in hand…

And Zionists claim to advocate for Jewish ppl but push several ideologies that are anti-Jewish

i'm not disagreeing with critiques against zionism but lumping it in with anti-communism was confusing. plenty of people are anti-communist without being part of fascist regimes

Anti-communism is inherently fascist. I just don’t think most ppl are educated on the history of communism, antisemitism and fascism tbh. Not being a communist is NOT the same thing as being anti-communist either btw

No, anti communism is

And there hasn’t been a single fascist entity that ISNT anticommunist either. Bc it’s the only thing that can actually combat fascism

have you lived in a former/current communist country? from firsthand experience, it's a mixed bag. some communist, some simply not supporting it, and some actively against it. labelling anti-communism as inherently fascism (when, the nuance is more-so that fascism often inherently INCLUDES anti-communism but anti-communism isn't inherently fascist) invalidates the millions of people who were harmed under communist systems. theory doesn't always fit neatly with human factors

No, I haven’t. the history of anti-communism is rooted in fascism. That’s just the history and material conditions of fascist societies, they HAVE to stamp out any left wing, anti-movements since any worker led movements are the antithesis to working class domination.

i have, though again, not a monolith. just lived experience. fascism is threatened by communist ideology but again, anti-communism itself isn't inherently fascist. a lot of anti-fascist movements in history were also anti-communist (spanish anarchists, prague spring, polish solidarity movement etc) and even currently movements in tibet and hong kong. treating it as interchangeable flattens the experience of workers who were harmed by the very institutions who claim to protect them (familiar)
