They are NOT fascists....they are COMMUNISTS. They are not authoritarian but TOTALITARIAN.
Fascism believes in country, family and faith...to the exclusion of all other countries, religion and citizens.
COMMUNISM believes in the party above all with no relation to country but world wide single control OF ALL PEOPLE regardless of country, religion, or genetic/racial/familial grouping. Only the party or the government is allowed to permit the correct thought.
Fascism wants to control your actions.
Communism wants to not only control your actions but your THOUGHTS.
That is why they destroy your love of country, your faith and family... anything that supports you and strengthens you must be destroyed in your mind. This is done in order for you to feel completely alone. Nobody is more important than the state or party..... you are NOTHING and must be made to understand that YOU ARE NOTHING without the state.
Spot on. We are dealing with modern day Bolsheviks.
