A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

fascist

Marxist/ Communist

Opposite likes north and south are opposites? Or opposites like apples and oranges are opposites.

Fascism and communism are both:

  • authoritarian attempts
  • to improve socieity
  • by radically changing economic relations
  • from consensual trade to slavery
  • to support a massive war effort
  • designed to get the rest of the world under the same authoritarian regime
  • resulting in millions of battlefield deaths
  • and the deaths of millions of enslaved citizens
  • by overwork, disease, starvation
  • and outright systematic execution

But one’s “left wing” and the other is “right wing” so they could be described as “opposites”.
