The 1930s USSR was squarely under the rule of Joseph Stalin, a brutal dictator. It was a time of mass starvation and persecution.

Authoritarian is not fascism. It is a component, but communism and fascism are not even close to synonymous.

There was one famine from mismanagement, and Stalin wasn't a great guy but this shit is really overblown.

The USSR was a fascism because it was a central dictatorship with violent tendencies. The actual definition of the term.
