  1. Communism and fascism aren't at the opposing ends of two poles, they are rather more like the two points that almost, but don't quite meet on a horseshoe.

  2. Mussolini defined fascism as when the interests of the state and its corporations could barely be separated by a cigarette paper. If Marx defined Communism as 'the abolition of private property' then perhaps fascism veers toward the vastly disproportionate private ownership and control of said private property? Hitler could never have risen to power in Germany without the support of Germany's prominent industrialists, for example. Big businesses many of which went on to profit heavily from the rearmament of Hitler's Germany and access to cheap slave labour and which still exist as highly thought of household names today. Largely untainted by their murky pasts. Moral of the story? Don't EVER let corporate and government interests get too close.
