I argue that fascism is different in that it gives the pretense of private ownership where communism doesn’t. And I know the origins of ‘’Leftist’’ and Rightist’’ thank you. Learn some manners while you’re at it.

First, I apologize for my insulting remarks.

However, it seems strange to me that somebody could realize that anyone who understands the history of the Right vs. Left divide (pro-aristocracy, pro-Church, and pro-industrialist landowner vs. pro-labor union) could claim that European movements who sought the support of aristocrats, clergy, and industrialists and crushed the labor unions are actually "left wing."
