And again, are we to assume that it is you who will decide who is a fascist and who is not?

And why such a discrimination of communists, who are far more deadly and dangerous than any "fascist" (your Soviet terminology is showing; surely you mean nazis of different stripes, not comparatively vegetarian Italians).

Despite what my username may imply, I'm not Russian nor a supporter of the USSR.

Fascists are a very real problem today. Communists are not.

It is generally a Soviet trait to conflate followers of Mussolini with nazis.

Arguably, communists are a greater problem than fringe nazi groups exactly because while being a nazi is not acceptable in a decent company, being a communist unfortunately is despite all historical evidence of their dangerousness.

But you are still avoiding the key question -- are you taking it upon yourself to determine who is a "fascist" to suffer consequences, and who is not?
