I am of the strong opinion that fascism doesn’t care if you call yourself a communist, a capitalist, or a Democrat. If someone promotes a state which strips the power of local and individual labor for it’s own use; cultivates violence as a means of domestic control; supports expansionism; and finally the consolidation of power under a personality; I oppose it, and call it what it is.
vague criteria. you can argue any country you dont like is under a dictatorship of whatever and is led by a cult of personality. you should be concerned about more realistic things, like supporting unions in your country, helping marginalized people, that sort of thing. not punching down at socialists.
Oh so if you fight someone doing a genocide you get to commit some of your own for free? Wasn’t aware that special was still going.
Also again ignoring the Soviets were happy to help nazi germany when it was convenient for them.
No of course not. While it is commendable that the Americans fought on the side of justice in WW2, it does not make up for their genocides. The Soviets however did not commit any genocide.
My comments are split now, so I’ll let you read my other one. I would just like to emphasize that I consider myself a socialist, and that it’s not really that vague of a criteria for the purposes of an Internet argument. It’s just broad. I believe all current world superpowers current share elements of fascism which I despise and oppose.

You’re a spineless coward, just admit you’re fine with genocide and totalitarianism so long as they have a red flag.
Genocide is horrible. That’s why I have so much respect for the USSR for stopping the Nazi menace.

So I guess it’s just not genocide when the Soviet Union does it?
The Soviets bravely fought against the Nazis and put a stop to the Holocaust. For that alone, they should have all of our respect.
Hitler bravely killed Hitler, is that enough to respect him?

Turns out you can say anyone didn’t commit genocide if you just ignore history.
