The issue is that leftism is incompatible with fascism. Not that leftists can’t be bad or evil, they can, but leftism itself cannot coexist with fascism. However, liberalism leads to fascism eventually, and social Democracy is still fundamentally a Capitalist ideology, and is just as easy to corrupt into fascism as shown in Nazi Germany.
I’m aware. Stalinism has more in common with Fascism than either has with capitalism with a well supported social safety net. To say “Well, leftism can’t devolve into Fascism but capitalism can!” is odd semantics because leftism can and obviously has repeatedly fallen into the authoritarian trap.
I mean,
dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation.

As compared to how hard it is to corrupt leftism into Stalinism?
