Commies represent them better than Nazis. Fascists are nationalist. Nationalism is incompatible with multicultural globalism. We are the nationalists.

I don't know who headed the propaganda under Lenin or Stalin though. Goebbels produced propaganda, but I don't know of his involvement in censorship. I don't know who was driving censorship in Germany.

Nationalism spans ideology. Communists become quite nationalistic once they gain totalitarian control, because the State is the nation. The Soviet Union, China, North Korea, and Cuba are examples of hyper nationalism; national celebrations are frequent and compulsory, and you wouldn't get away with burning the national flag or any criticism of the country. Global conquest is the goal of all totalitarian ideologies, but that doesn't exclude nationalism. Indeed, while the Nazis were nationalist, they also had global ambitions.

I would argue that our current regime is more closely aligned with fascism than communism considering their close ties with corporate interests, who were also instrumental in their rise to power. This mirrors the Nazi's more so than the Soviets, although the result is totalitarianism either way.
