Duh, now its obvious ... "to forestall proletarian revolution" ... this is written from the communist perpective....

what this propaganda omits is that fascism and communism are ideological twins, peas in the same collectivist pod. the only difference is that fascism openly allows a (property-controlling) ruling elite as part of the ideology - while communism pretended there wasnt (but in fact there really was, for example USSR had the "nomenklatura" of elites; consequently, Stalin's USSR and Hitler's Germany wasnt much different for the average person not in the "Party").

Yep....Mussolini's father used to read Marx to him, and Mussolini was a communist in his "formative" years (teens/20s)... all of these propagandist pieces on the definition of fascism tend to ignore that piece of data about the father of fascism and his origins and inspiration.
Bit suspicious, no?
