Horseshoe theory is bullshit that ideologically deficient people made up to make themselves look good while lumping leftist reform advocates in with fascists.
No. There being similarities doesn’t mean that they’re identical. For example, fascism is ultra-capitalist and against social safety nets, whereas communism is anti-capitalist and very much in favor of social safety nets.
To think them identical requires a child-level understanding of political ideologies, something that’s unfortunately very common amongst liberals and centrists.
“The same place” is very much a way of saying identical when it comes to political ideology. Nice try using semantics to pretend your claim isn’t moronic oversimplification mixed with ignorance, but it didn’t work.

I’m neither lol. Both are crappy authoritarian ideologies with a fondness for state violence.
I’m more somewhere between an anti-capitalist pacifist social democrat and an anarchist, depending on the issue.
… so like a horseshoe shape where the more extreme ends seem to trend back to the same place?

You seem to be getting mad and not reading properly.
Aaand we’re at the repeating already refuted bullshit stage. That’s where I take my leave. Have the day you deserve.
I see you went to the Ben Shapiro school of argumentation.
