The Left has redefined fascism to mean limited government and free market capitalism. The term “democratic socialism” that Sanders uses is supposed to replace our idea of democracy.

"democratic socialism" = tyranny. Economically, it tends to mean that everyone is equally poor, except the ruling elite. The left has always hated the "bourgeoisie," the middle- and upper-middle class of businessmen, tradesmen, shop-owners, and small farmers.
You see it today in cities run by the left - great wealth, a shrinking middle-class, and a growing proletariat. Where I live, the only new homes are on lots where an old home is demolished. Meanwhile, older single homes are demolished and replaced by large, ugly apartments.
