Question

Communism in the Soviet Union and Fascism in Nazi Germany had which of the following features in common

Answer 1

Nothing. The only activity that is forbidden under national socialism is organizing against the government. Otherwise, he is free to engage in any activity that is legal in a liberal democratic nation. However, there are strict restrictions on personal behavior in communist nations. Nothing can be produced by someone and sold to someone else. Not even a bake sale, a piece of art, a book, or some boots. Nothing one produces may be sold or claimed as their own. Nothing is yours to keep personally. The elite of the communist party, which controls the government, owns everything and lives like kings without a care in the world, while the average person only has access to the barest necessities like free, subpar healthcare, education, and housing. There were severe famines that claimed tens of millions of lives in communist China and the Soviet Union. In communist nations, the government owns all industry, such as it is, and decides where and how people will work. They are only given restricted freedom of movement inside the nation and are not permitted to exit it. They are impassed. Additionally, the government mandates that everyone adopt the beliefs that the Marxist party and its philosophy reject. no commitment to any religion or unconventional political or social ideologies. Never, dude. For this reason, the CIA was so dedicated to eliminating communists throughout the Cold War wherever they might be found. In the Middle East, Vietnam, Indonesia, South America, etc. They might have had a point when they said that the only decent communist was a dead one. National Socialism was considered positively by the CIA personnel I met who were active in the 1950s as a socialist alternative that might stop the spread of communism in third-world nations where old oligarchies very well assured that communist revolutions would succeed. The CIA backed Saddam Hussein and his Ba'ath party when I worked in Iraq because it was a socialist and anti-Islamist movement that might stop the communists from gaining control. Nazi spies established the Ba'ath of Iraq in the 1930s.  Nazi type parties and movements and governments were from time to time supported by the CIA in many places.
