I always figured the communists and fascists were closer to each other than they were to the west.  Both communism and fascism were autocratic systems, not examples of government helping the people, while they might pretend.

The jump is not all that far.

I agree in full.  I see that as an orthogonal anarchy <--> totalitarian axis.  People are either drawn to strong leaders or they aren't, and no one's stronger than an absolute autocrat.
