Question

unit 1 quiz #2-mwh
which statement best describes a similarity between fascist and communist governments?
they both used terror and indoctrination to keep power.
they both flourished during times of economic prosperity and social stability.
they both supported international revolution.

Explanation:

Fascist and communist governments have been known to use terror and indoctrination to maintain power. Fascist regimes often suppressed opposition through violence and spread their ideology via state - controlled propaganda. Communist governments, in some cases, also used force against perceived enemies and indoctrinated the population through state - run education and media. Economic prosperity and social stability are not typical breeding grounds for these ideologies. Communism supports international revolution in theory, but fascism is more about extreme nationalism.

Answer:

They both used terror and indoctrination to keep power.
