Fascism is Communism with snappier uniforms.

I could dispute the "snappier" part, but won't, and will concede they're different; other than that, mass murder is mass murder is mass murder.
Fascism has a larger military budget and a nationalistic flavor rather than an international goal of World Socialism. It also has a poor shelf life—people get over it and vote it out—in time. Once the “leader” dies it drys up. Think of Fascism as a sort of drastic medicine. If your nation is going down the toilet—try the Fascism pill—it will make a recovery, establish law and order, lots of parades and music and uniforms, etc... BUT, like all bitter medications—it has bad side effects. The worst case was the racist Nazi German Government of Adolph Hitler. Wars, racism, xenophobia, and conquest to name a few. When thinking of Fascism—think Franco’s Spain, or Evita and Juan Peron’s Argentina. I believe Putin’s Russia is slipping into Fascism even now. It may come here-BUT-not with Obama. A Fascist state needs good, leadership that captivates the nation—Obama can’t do it. I see no leaders today who could pull it off in the USA.
