In what way is sucking the Chinese Governments boot any better than Facism?
It’s not. The Chinese government is an abusive autocracy that doesn’t respect the “rights” of its people and answers to nothing and no one other than Xi and profits and power. Those three things are king.
Marxists and fascists are two sides of the same coin. They may have somewhat different end goals, but they’re alike in having zero regard for the democratic will of the people. May every Hexbear troll be accursed.
I wouldn’t say classical Marxists could be equated with fascists but most people nowadays who call themselves “Communists” are fascist at heart.
Authoritarian, yes, fascist, no. We need the term fascist at the moment to call out actual fascists, diluting it by using it label people who aren’t fascists but are also problematic plays directly into the misinformation the fascists thrive on
