Pretty much nail on the head. Back in Germany the communists were competing with the Nazis for the very same types of recruits. Fascist vs. communist is really just socialist infighting. The big fascist himself, Benito Mussolini, was very much admired by American Progressives of the 20’s and 30’s. It seems they never learn.
I think the "look" is right here in the WH!
“Fascist vs. communist is really just socialist infighting.”
Well put.
