Expand your definition. It's Authoritarianism you should really be afraid of.
When someone has their jackboot on your neck, what does it matter if it's left or right?
While both are bad, fascism is the current problem.
It's kinda like being in the middle of a forest fire and saying "it's natural disaster you should really be afraid of. When there is a disaster, does it really matter if it is a forest fire or an earthquake?"
Saying that when the current problem is a forest fire kind of misses the point.
