To place Russian communism and Nazi-fascism on the same moral plane, in that both would be totalitarian, is superficial at best, fascism at worst. Whoever insists on this equation may well consider himself a democrat, in truth and in the bottom of his heart he is in fact already a fascist, and certainly only in a hypocritical and insincere way will he fight fascism, while reserving all his hatred for communism.

NO U

Stunning. Incredible take.

Also they said fascism, not nazi-fascism. Tankies aren't nazis. They excuse completely different genocides than the holocaust.

Russia is an oligarchy, not a communist state. Where have you been since the 1990s?

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Yes very well articulated. He even managed to use democrat as an insult. Stunning and brave.

They said tankies, not Russian communism.

Everybody knows russian communism is marginally better than fascism, except those who survived it and fascistly say it's as bad.

There's no such thing as Russian communism. They never were communist and never will be communist. They liked the word communist. Or at least saying it a lot. They liked also pretend that it was their aspiration to become communist. But no Marxist leninist government has ever or will ever achieve communism. But they will ruin its name with their hypocritical Behavior.

There is a difference between a fascist and a Marxist leninist. But they are both authoritarian. So it isn't massive. And if you cross the end group in either one your life is forfeit.

It's true because Thomas said it?

Edit: Nice downvotes but I would actually like to know his reasoning.

Poignant, thanks.
