Communism doesn't work as you have fascists at the head of it all (usually).

Democratic socialist governments are the best. Vote for who you want to benefit everyone.



Hmm, pie.

Not a fan of either, but I'd say communism can work on small scale (like a small town, or less than 1000 people) while I can't see fascism working out.



Fascism, since it's almost evil by nature. Communism is just naive.

I prefer fantasy over reality, as in classic Star Trek's idea of communism.

Both words are too loaded to be useful anymore anyway.
I grew up in Europe in the 70's living next to Germany, so naturally fascism was still the biggest bogey.
Growing up in the USA no doubt communist was the biggest swear word.

Better question is Capitalism vs Socialism.

Maybe I'll do one between free-market capitalism, social democracy and socialism in the future.

 It appears  so.

Fascism, simply for its agressive nature. Theres no reason for it to even exist. Nationalism, as a whole, is a burden in today's world.
Communism at least sounds great on paper, even if it doesnt work historically.



Ideologically, it's definitely facism.



This is odd. Communism is extreme Left economics (so is FULL socialism but not the same thing) while fascism is full authoritarian government control of society. A leader like Joseph Stalin could be both of these things.



Why do people defend communism because it is noble in "theory"? it has been tried multiple times and doesn't work, it has killed tens of millions more than Nazis. It is the deadliest ideology and should be shot down as soon as someone tries to make any type of case for it.



let's see...
germany under a fascist leader went from the poorest and weakest country in europe to the richest and most powerful in about a decade.
communism reduced the most powerful nation on earth into pretty much a bankrupt state, granted it took almost a century, but still.

HMMMMMMM....



Fascism is worse.. In the same way that being stabbed in the testicles with a rusty knife is worse than being stabbed in the testicles by a non-rusty knife.
