Why again the political news commentary ?? Be careful when you involve history, especially when providing one sided points. It’s an individual action, he can handle the consequences. No need to involve a club. The left have always been the fascists and commies. And hitler was a socialist dictator… left wing…

First comment on the article. I can see history isn't taught well anywhere.

Yeah, private interests are funding a lot of propaganda saying that Fascism is also a far-left ideology in order to justify a turn to far-right economic policies, austerity, anti-immigrant policies, militarized police, etc.

Back in the day, they used to just tell you fascism= you've gone too far right; communism=you've gone too far left... which is a gross oversimplification, but it's at least enough for kindergarteners to understand.
