re: #202 Salamantis

Fascisms are right wing collectivist totalitarianisms, and communisms are left wing collectivist totalitarianisms.

But given your very observation, the difference between “right wing” and “left wing” loses any practical meaning. What real difference was there in being a subject of Hitler or of Stalin? It becomes a Crips vs. Bloods kind of distinction; a smarter taxonomy recognized them both as “street gangs”, rather than as somehow on different sides of a “spectrum”.
