Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 14c14,16
Stalinism and Fascism have a lot of similarities thanks to both being totalitarian governments, but that doesn't mean one should overlook their differences. Stalinists promised a worker's utopia and go on the left, Fascists promised a good police state and go on the right. Other axes are usually added to reflect their commonalities, but that doesn't mean we get to ignore the coordinate difference on the one we have! If you do, you shouldn't expect to get a meaningfully discerning system. -- JoshuaGrosse

I am waiting for one of you know-it-alls to supply a better definition. Nothing's stopping you. -- LarrySanger
