    Because Stalin was a Soviet Dictator. Fascism had a direct capitalist economic component that you’re completely ignoring.

    This might be of interest for your further research

    And also

    belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and/or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.[2][3]

      I’m only ignoring it because what you’re saying isn’t in the dictionary definition of “fascism,” and I’m not a political theorist. I’m just going by what the good book says.

      belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and/or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy

      What about Stalin makes you think he demonstrated any of this?

        “belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and/or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy” Is a direct quote from the link on Fascism,

        I don’t believe Stalin demonstrated any of that through policy.
