I always get a kick out these nihilists claiming to be anti-fascist when they have no clue what the term means. That idiot from CNN, don lemon, even sarcastically told an actual adult that ANTIFA is a freedom loving organization because they are against fascism. "It's in their name," he exclaimed, while the guest just sort of looked at him and probably thought to himself, if you weren't a gay black guy you would be working the drive-thru some place. Stalin, like Lenin before him, liked to keep things simple because, like Lenin, he considered the proletariat to be too stupid to grasp ideological nuance. As much as I despise Stalin, he had a point there, but I digress.
Anyway, like Lenin did with his "bread, land, peace," campaign in 1918, Stalin decided it was a lot easier to define all his enemies as fascists and be done with it. When Truman challenged him about not honoring his commitment to allow democratic governments in Central Europe, Stalin's retort was that any government that wasn't fascist was democratic so he wasn't violating any of his agreements WRT to the socialist states popping up like dandelions in the nations the Red Army "liberated." And, like all good lefties do, the rest of commies across the world adopted the practice and there ya have it.
Give the commies credit, they are a persistent bunch and they do march in lock-step once something is decided. Of course China is leading the way in the 21st Century and there is no telling which way Xi will go in the next 10 years. He has stated a desire to redress past wrongs and he seems to be quite adept at buying American politicians. Time will tell what the next phase of authoritarianism will look like on a grand scale. Stay tuned.
