Both fascism and socialism are, primarily, forms of economic organization. If you want to learn the similarities and differences, you should consult an economic text rather than a dictionary. May I suggest you pick up a copy of Hayek's "The Road to Surfdom". This book, written in the 1940s long before Free Republic, explains why fascism should both be considered special cases of communism.
Your screed only illustrates your lack of understanding of economics.
Thanks for the book reference!
