    False analogy is false. Fascism is not Marxism. In particular, very few Marxists would be willing to murder you for power, but all fascists would.

      Actually I would argue that Marxism is even worse than fascism because Fascist know they’re evil and own it, but Marxists know they’re evil but pretend they’re humanitarians. It’s pretty sick. Also, looking at the theory of the ideology, it is inherently violent. This is reflected in history as tens of millions ended up being killed as a direct result Marxist violence and persecution in 20th century alone.

        Oh, you’re one of them. Can’t say I’m surprised.

          Someone who isn’t historically illiterate? I’m not surprised either. Most people who aren’t tend to view Marxism for the evil that it was.

          Marxism is a full fledged ideology. That’s just objective fact. You can’t erase what it is or what happened because of it.

      This is not what was said. I’ll rephrase it.

      Since 9 conservatives sitting around table with 1 right-winger makes all of them right-wingers, will 9 conservatives sitting around table with 1 leftist makes all of them leftists?

        No. Leftists aren’t fascists and aren’t analogous to fascists.

          Wow, manipulative. I never said that leftists are fascists. I called fascists right-wingers.

          Why no? Or you want to say that group of leftists and conservatives becomes group of conservatives?

            Wow, dense. You can’t just replace “fascists” with some other ideology and expect it to make sense. Fascists are monsters and anyone who works with them is a monster, too.
