For the most part, the only “ideology” to stand up and fight back against communism from the Bolshevik Revolution to the beginning of WW2, was the fascists.
And, of course, the fascists themselves were just another competing idiocy of socialist utopianism, all of which become mass murder machines geared to eliminate everyone but the thin slice of human behavior that is compatible with that idiot system.
But, it left a mark, a scar if you will, in the hearts and minds of all depraved degenerates of the left.
So, now, anyone that’s not a proper commiescum is, by default, a fascist. In their minds. Only the two can exist.
Because they are idiots. And scumbags. And depraved degenerates.
