All fascists have always used leftist promises to gain support. Talks have never matched their actions. Some people learn to not trust lying, many don’t.

Liberals turning the word “fascist” from a specific term that allowed the analysis and identification of specific political phenomena, into just yet another synonym for “the bad guys”, has been instrumental in allowing actual fascism to rise again unchecked.

That’s true, but it doesn’t mean truly communist ideas don’t exist. Both the Fediverse and Free Software, as concepts, are pretty darn “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs” if you think about it, ya know?
