If someone tells you they’re a socialist, ask them if they are an international socialist or a national socialist.

Big con that communism and fascism are viewed as opposites when, in fact, they are two sides of the same coin.

Bingo!

My polisci prof said years ago...”the only thing separating the Nazis and Commies were five letters. I-N-T-E-R. Two sides of the same coin.”

I dislike the linear definition of politics. I subscribe to the clock method where communism is 1100 and fascism is 0100. That is how close together they are.
I will use national and international socialist in future conversations. I like that.
