In practice, a dictatorship is a dictatorship is a dictatorship. The


“Ideology” giving rise to it is cover for the reality, which is: it is always about the good of the individual dictator and those he chooses to bring along for the ride.

Ideologically, I think fascism (nazism is just fascism with Hitler as the dictator)is kind of honest about it. There is no animating ideology. Fascism’s birth was “Hi, I’m Benito Mussolini, and I’m now in charge of absolutely everything!” Communism throws up the veil of being for the collective good. All property gets pooled, we all share equally in the spoils, and we are a class free society. The only “class-free” thing about any communist society has been its clothing and its rhetoric - everyone is “comrade”. But some comrades are more equal than others.
