I would have to argue that fascism is inherently bad, while communism can be interpreted and implemented in both good and bad ways..

What's the difference?
Communism is the most democratic system there is.
On the evil axis, it is the most "good" system that you can have.
Only problem is that too many people are convinced it doesn't work, and don't actually know much about it.

Ah, equating communism with fascism. Guaranteed replies!
The ideal of communism is far removed from and noticeably kinder than the ideal of fascism. Shame that previous real attempts at both end up somewhere close to the latter.

In theory communism, in practice Facism. I would rather live fascist Spain or Italy than any communist country. At the extremes Nazi Germany would be better than Stalin's USSR. I can understand if one was Jewish why one would pick the USSR.

An appropriate spacing of words if there ever was one.

That better?
Just kidding, but seriously, yes it does, anarcho-communism or Democratic Socialism. But I don't think that's what the OP meant.

If you're going to use "communism" then use the damn word properly. I would just laugh at someone if they insisted on using "heritability" to mean "% trait caused by genes" instead of "% variability caused by genes". And of course, someone who ignores what "theory" means in the sciences I would just plain avoid.

It took me six months and at least 5,000 posts to figure out WHAT THE HECK Marxists are talking about when they use the word Communism.
Even now that I know, I still think of Stalin or Mao when I think "Communist". And I know he didn't mean anarchy or democracy because then the answer would be a no brainer, even for someone on the far-right.

No. It wishes to remove individual freedoms, based on their idea that there is no substantial thing as an "individual".
No. This is not correct at all. Fascism, for one, is not concerned with Judaism, and not any other so-called "victim" by necessity, either. Nazi Germany was not the only example of an attempt at Fascism ever, and neither was it typical of Fascism by far. That would be like using Pinochet as the primary example for an Enlightenmentist society.
This is the post I most agree with in this thread.

Well, given that, rather than being evil, it's a rather tremendous good, I'm going to have to go with "communism".
Demonstrate this claim, with full reference to all branches of Marxist theory.
