I guarantee 99% of people reading this do NOT understand what fascism is
This is why I think the far left is ridiculous. It’s a lot of the same things as fascism like “hey you can’t own anything since the state (the elite/the dictator) owns everything”

All politics must start, and be defined, from identifying the enemy group. And how that group “destroyed” a past that never existed.

According to conservatives, communism is somehow when everything is free for everyone but at the same time nobody is allowed to have anything

Fascism is best identified as a political movement, not as a system of government. It is a process by which people take power by invoking a mythic glorious past, scapegoating one particular group for all of society’s problems, and making the public lose trust in established institutions. Fascism is obsessed with purity, appearance of strength, oversimplification of problems, and thus often leads to authoritarian regimes that pretend to be “for the people” when they are only for a specific group
