Communism is an extreme version of Democrat; fascism is an extreme version of Republican.
Doesn't matter. There are only two pure political ideologies.......Collectivism and Individualism. Fascism, Communism, Socialism, and today's warped version of liberalism all fall under the umbrella of Collectivism.
Those who call themselves "Liberal" today are actually "Collectivists". The "Individualist" values of the Classical Liberalism of our Founding Fathers, has been abandoned by those who have stolen the title of "Liberal" in order to disguise their "Collectivist" ideals. Classical liberalism is a political ideology that values the freedom of individuals — including the freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and markets — as well as limited government.
