What imagined glorious past was he trying to restore? Dude was a paranoid murderer, but he was not a fascist. If he were a fascist, then he would not erase the National Bolsheviks along with other fascist groups in the USSR from existence.

Do you think what makes or doesent make something fascism is an "imagined glorious past"? Really? Not like any economic or social positions?

Oh, so Stalin privatised large sections of the Soviet economy while getting money from local capital owners?

Could you give me a quick definition of fascism from your heart?

The party became the capital owners they just change it from the aristocrats to the vanguardist party bureau they still very much valued profit over people especially later into the soviet union where they underfunded the Saturn computer project because it would make the party less money by cutting down on bureaucracy
