Your statement that social ALWAYS leads to c*******m has not proven to be true. The socialistic aspects found in all of the Western world and industrialized countries are integral to their workings and to their success and have no similarities or leanings toward c*******m.

You can claim that the right is for "T***h, Justice and the American Way" but the actions of the right tell the world that their goals are the exact opposite.

F*****m/N**ism are both left-wing ideologies. Mussolini was a confirmed l*****t/socialist/c*******t, and Hitler's N**i Party was the German Socialist Workers' Party. The left has expended quite a bit of propaganda moving f*****m/N**ism to the right, when in fact it has always been a left-wing/socialist/c*******t ideology
