(1/4) I just had a good discussion with my friend @Zander_Ghoul about the differences between fascism and "M"L/Stalinism.
The conclusion we came to was that, while different "system", they were effectively the same in ends.

(2/4) This is often why I call "M"Ls fascists, as they employ many of he same tactics used by actual fascists, and like I said pretty much end effectively the same way with more or less different "aesthetics".

(3/4) I also do this because they often try to pull a Ben Shapiro and attempt to get you to admit something so they can validate their talking points. It both angers them and makes their talking points not work when you call them that.

(4/4) Obviously, they aren't by the actual in-depth definition of fascism "fascist".
But, in the slightly vaguer simplified definition, they are and they share very little differences other than how they get to the same conclusion.
Anyway, thats the thread.
