Thanks, no problem! I think it's totally fine to be firmly against the USSR, for clarification, but I also believe that fascism should be as clearly defined and understood as possible, because in the modern era it poses a genuine threat, so understanding what it looks like and how it operates is key.
You made some good points, I concede I was being overly reductive. I think you made a great summary of it.
I edited my previous comment to reflect how you changed my mind.
