    Myth: Communism and Fascism are the Same

    Fascism upholds capitalist hierarchies (race, class, gender); communism seeks to abolish them

    Fascism arises from capitalist decay to protect ruling-class interests, while communism opposes capitalism.

    Historical examples (Franco, Hitler) show fascists collaborating with capitalists, not communists, who were among the first to be jailed/killed.

      You forgot to include some communist historical examples.

      Hint: They tend to do exactly the same thing.
