Yes, you’re right to notice that these ideas contradict each other! The terms Marxists, communists, and fascists refer to different, often opposing political ideologies, and they aren't typically compatible. Here’s a breakdown:

1. Marxism

Marxism is a social, political, and economic theory developed by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It advocates for a classless society where the means of production (factories, resources, etc.) are collectively owned.

Marxism emphasizes the struggle between different classes, specifically the working class (proletariat) and the capitalist class (bourgeoisie). Marxists believe that the working class should eventually overthrow the capitalist system.

Marxism forms the foundation for many socialist and communist ideas.


2. Communism

Communism, as envisioned by Marx, is a classless, stateless society where all property is publicly owned, and each person works and is compensated according to their abilities and needs.

It is a more specific application of Marxist ideas and is seen as the ultimate goal of Marxist theory—a society free from class distinctions, where resources and power are evenly distributed.

In practice, many political systems that have called themselves “communist” have varied widely from the original Marxist ideals, often retaining strong central governments rather than achieving a stateless society.


3. Fascism

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian political ideology that emerged in the early 20th century. It is typically associated with nationalism, dictatorial power, and the suppression of opposition.

Fascism rejects democracy, promotes a single-party state, and often emphasizes a powerful, centralized government led by a dictatorial leader.

Economically, fascists tend to support a regulated, capitalist system, but under strict government control, often collaborating with large businesses to support state objectives.

Fascism is fundamentally anti-communist, as it seeks to uphold traditional power structures, social hierarchies, and nationalist identities—ideas that are antithetical to Marxist or communist goals.


Key Differences and Conflicts

Marxism and Communism focus on achieving equality and a classless society, while Fascism upholds hierarchy, nationalism, and an authoritarian state.

Fascism directly opposes communism and Marxism because it views them as threats to national unity and traditional social structures.

Marxism and communism critique capitalism and seek its overthrow, while fascism generally allows capitalist structures but keeps them tightly controlled by the state.


So, when someone describes a person or group as “Marxists, communists, and fascists” simultaneously, it’s inaccurate. These ideologies are contradictory, as Marxism and communism aim for class equality and dismantling capitalism, while fascism reinforces social hierarchy and nationalism.

I used to respect Brett Baier as one of the last even quasi-journalists at FN. Trump clearly said he considered Nancy Pelosi a threat, and it was that same part of the conversation where he threatened the National Guard or military.

People say all kinds of things, but only one person tried to overthrow his own government because he lost an election. Harris/Walz 2024! 🇺🇸💙

[nolagirl]

You can feel the fear in the trolls. They know he's going to lose and they're in panic mode.

[BitchbetterHavemymoney-kf]

That’s the message Americans need to hear! Unity, and prosperity for all!

[Teevibes]

Vote as early as possible. We’re gonna get though this. 💙🗳️💙

[wetbruin]

idk if you saw it, but the way they acted. disgraceful. @brett Bayer was disgraceful in cutting her off. Why ask the question if you won't let her answer?

[patcomerford]

She was brilliant on the Faux News interview. I love her. Vote Blue. 💙💙💙

[hearmeout]

Shady Vance is a stumbling, bumbling liar. Trump lost the 2020 election and Vance is too weak and afraid to admit it. I’m voting to defend the constitution and to protect American values, civil liberties and individual freedoms. I’m voting for Harris/Walz 🇺🇸

[Dont.Call.Me.Tall.]

Trump said even today "the enemy within" are just dems he doesn't like (Pelosi) and Brett Bear cut that part out. These people are craven.

[theshamanofenterprise]

Bunch of tantrums are taking place in the comments. Kamala did excellant work.

[richard.d]

Wow!!! Just skip over one of the biggest toppics of this election the border. I would suggest anyone seeing this clip go watch the interview for what they are showing for the interview on this stream is just not enough to go on

[nightguardian]

I want an uniter not a divider. Never Trump!!!

[philiplyons]

Kamala Harris was very impressive on Fox News. She makes her point clearly and concisely and comes across as very intelligent. There can be no doubt now that she will make a great president in both domestic and foreign affairs.

[Swiggs]

Msnbc cutting up the interview to try and make her look good 😂

[XLR]

What else do you call people who try to throw their political opponents in prison or who riot and tear apart cities all across the country?

[АллаМаклак]

We’ve talked a lot about how the 2024 election might impact the markets, .. Has anyone made significant gains or losses in previous election years?

[KINGBASSPRO]

I bet Trump would never answer any questions straight away like VP Harris just did.
I remember they asked Trump easy questions about his childCARE plan, he started talking about Ivanka and windmill. 😂😂😂😂
