      I’m neither lol. Both are crappy authoritarian ideologies with a fondness for state violence.

      I’m more somewhere between an anti-capitalist pacifist social democrat and an anarchist, depending on the issue.

          No. There being similarities doesn’t mean that they’re identical. For example, fascism is ultra-capitalist and against social safety nets, whereas communism is anti-capitalist and very much in favor of social safety nets.

          To think them identical requires a child-level understanding of political ideologies, something that’s unfortunately very common amongst liberals and centrists.
