Once upon a time, I got into a fierce argument about the difference between communists and fascists. My position was that there wasn't much difference between the two. The argument was about that very thing-- that communists and fascists are opposites is a fallacy, in my opinion.
Ideology can make you stupid. As true today as always.
The guy in the embedded tweet has a Nazi tatoo, but also claimed to be a communist. The conventional thinking is that he cannot possibly be a communist if he has a Nazi tatoo.
Nonsense. Hitler said that the best Nazis were former commies. There's really not much difference at all between the two ideologies. This is a myth.
Quote: "From this day forward you will never see a headline in the political press referring to Graham Platner, the candidate in question, as a communist, though that’s how he described himself as recently as 2020. " https://t.co/IoDIguv8bz
