Red fascism came from anarchists who swallowed antiCommunist propaganda and believe communists = nazis

The problem with this is that the Soviets led by Stalin saved the world from nazi fascism and made the largest contribution to the world in the fight against racism and national liberation movements worldwide

If USSR lost world war 2 the post war period would be dominated by fascist Italy, Japan and a Nazi Germany with the resources and land of the USSR. There almost certainly would still be colonies as USSR played a pivotal role in destroying the British empire also (the Suez crisis for instance... Russian technical expertise was given to Egyptians in managing the Suez canal largely seen as the end of British empire)

Like these motherfuckers think the same people who liberated Auschwitz and hunted nazis all over europe are the same because....reasons?

I guess Anarchists will reply that the Soviets were authoritarian (as if there is another way to build and defend your revolution)

But if there problem is with authoritarianism then why are anarchists not fash with a cool drawn @ ?

Afterall anarchists, when they have come to power, have setup Dictatorships of the Proletariat in mahknos Ukraine and Catalonia where they had secret police, total monopoly on newspapers, banned newspapers that werent anarchist ones, own judiciary, summary executions for suspected counter-revolutionaries (and due to their aversion to prisons were more likely just to execute people) and labour camps ie. Gulags

Under Mahknos Ukraine they even went as far to chain gang peasants for slave labour

So if Communists should have to wear the albatross of the occasional human rights abuses (and they were occasional and much better than capitalist nations who let people freeze ito death in the streets then whine when some counter revolutionary gets a beating or thrown in prison) then why dont anarchists?

Because communists say "we are going to create a dictatorship of the proletariat where workers own, control and dictate everything"

Anarchists say they are against all hierarchy until they come to power and throw that in the trash along with their opposition to a Proletarian state and instead setup a smaller state with all the features of say USSR/Dprk/Cuba just without the centralisation of production and the military means to defend itself
