I'm not sure the old distinctions of 'communist' and fascist' are very useful and applicable nowadays, at least not in the sense of the political theories which spawned them in the last century. There are countries nowadays ruled by authoritarian regimes which are to varying degrees oppressive in nature , denying human rights and the freedoms of expression and association we take for granted, North Korea , Myanmar[Burma] , China , Iran and Saudi Arabia are examples. But the old labels are not very helpful. The exampes listed could more appropriately be characterised as militaristic regimes or theocracies .

There are no more Facist countries, in which the country is controlled by a Fascist Party, which is different from a Communist Party in which it support the capitalist elite that the Communist distrust and go as far as to support them in the turbulent times of Revolution thoughout europe, and also appeal to the masses with firery rethoric promising some socialist programs from a charismatic figure. North Korea and Cuba is a communist dictatorship, which is different from Fascism in that it in theory is not to allow capitalism at all. Fascism was made to preserve capitalism. Spain was a fascist country, but South Africa and Chile is not. South Africa is in theory a Democratic country, but only for about the 1% of White people in the country, and even then, if you were of Dutch origin, you get more rights then those of British origin. Chile was a Military Junta, which a group of military officers discuss discision in private. There are no Fascist Country, but few countries do have dictatorship and impose Fascist policies such as giving no one votes and ethnic cleansing.

I find these labels tricky. North Korea fits the fascist mold, but it is called communist. The Nazi's were the National Socialist Workers Party, but Nazi Germany was a cult of the personality embodied in Hitler just as Korea is with their totalitarian leader.
Stalin's USSR was "communist", but it was totalitarian and cult of personality also. The original fascist was Mussolini, and he probably had less total power in his country than the others mentioned. Depends how you define fascist.

Communism is only the place the human beings paintings jointly for the stable of the community. If somebody could make a Communist society paintings, i could take it over Fascism in a heartbeat.

Sure. The United States. You might think Im crazy but hear me out. Our rights are being taken away day by day. The government wants to take away everything that makes us a democracy from our right to bear arms to our freedom of speech and sooner than you would think our sovereignty as well. The North American Union is soon coming. Will you stand by and watch it happen and do nothing? I wont. The first step is to stop gulping down what the media is trying to sell you. This, surely will be the death of us all.
Dear Eric,
"people are getting away with lighting flags and sstuff. pictures of swatstickas on israeli flags in art museums. kindergardeners being taught sex ed. its crazy, you libererals think we shouild be aloud to do everything."
First. I am no libreal.
Second. There are more gramatical errors in that run on sentence than I can count.
Third. THESE are exactly the things I'm talking about. If us normal Americans say anything against the ideals and lifestyles of this dying and sick nation we are shut up and shut down. We are called racists, homophobic, supremacists and religious zealots. All for having a differing opinion. That is true fascism. Check out spp.gov if you actually interested in whats REALLY going on in our country.
