This is not true. The right suffers far more than the left from censorship. It’s telling you have to go back to WWI era to find a censored socialist. Since 1945, if not earlier, the left has controlled the Western unis & media. Ask @charlesmurray about free speech difficulties.https://twitter.com/WillShetterly/status/1044272825648009217 …
The roots of fascism are the same as Bolshevism: populism. Fascism is a rightist attempt to use leftist methods to create a new hierarchy—ultimately this fails because it moves leftwards. It just works a little better than full on leftism.

Ah, we can agree on your first sentence. However, you're still operating in a binary universe when you insist populism is a leftist method. Though you are right that the people are usually to the left of their rulers.

The universe is divided in truth & falsehood, hence its binary nature. Populism isn’t a leftist method; it’s rightist relative to the 20th century, that’s all. People are usually more conservative than their rulers, and they’re dragged left by a section of the elite.
