Communist parties around the world killed 80+ million civilians, and were also vehemently anti-fascist, will opposing that make you fascist?

Opposing someone who happens to be anti-fascist doesn't make you anti-anti-fascist or fascist any more than opposing someone who is blue makes you anti-blue or yellow.

However if I say all blue are terrorists and it's legal to shoot blue on sight. Then I'm anti-blue. If I say all anti-blue are terrorists and it's legal to shoot anti-blue on sight, then I'm very pro-blue. It doesn't matter if there's a bunch of green over there calling itself blue. If I meant the green calling itself blue was terrorists, then I would have said that.

While we're doing hypotheticals, what does Elon Musk's destruction of USAID and the downstream deaths resulting from it make him?

If someone is opposed to Communism they should oppose Communism, not anti-fascism. Seems pretty straightforward

Oddly the US is very cozy with some modern Communists!
