    If I were to compare and contrast about fascism and communism then I would start off by saying that they are 2 different styles of having power over everyone. For example‚ in North Korea they have a fascism leader in Kim Jong Un and how he basically controls all of North Korea. Communism as you can tell would be the exact opposite.
