With the Van Jones and Obama-trons we have new standards of racial purity. If you are a white male you can go f yourself unless you accept being dominated by kooky unscientific third world ideologues
But getting back to Hayek, the key point is that there is no reason to spend much time arguing about fascism vs. Communism, as there isn't much difference between the two from the standpoint of "the liberal of the old type".
I agree with Hayek up to a point... One big difference is communists want to destroy religion and the family. Communism should replace those two. Fascists such as Franco in Spain are traditional as far as faith and family. Their fascist state is not competing with the family and religion but communism most definitely is
Realize that Hayek was writing in the 1940s, before the Left appropriated the term to mean "another word for socialist". When he said "the liberal of the old type", he was talking about someone who truly believed in individual freedom and a minimalist State, what we call today a conservative.
Franco was really more of a neo-monarchist, which is quite different from a fascist, and of course was very religious. He didn’t engage in the sort of cult of personality / state worship that Hitler and Mussolini propagandized. Hitler very much took down/apart the churches. Mussolini couldn’t go that route because of the strong influence of the Roman Catholic Church in Italy.
