      No. You’re wrong.

      I’m from Spain, we had fascism for 40 years. We had no public education for everyone, no free healthcare for everyone, no guaranteed employment, no right to unionize, no pensions, no guaranteed housing, university was only for the rich families, farm workers were exploited by the landowners, there was immense racism and ethnonationalism as state policy, and other cultures and languages (see Basque and Catalan) were forbidden and repressed.

      Communism is literally antithetical to fascism, it provides universal free healthcare, universal pensions, guaranteed right to employment, guaranteed housing at affordable prices, universal free education to the highest level, respect for local cultures and languages, socialist internationalism as opposed to ethnonationalism, highest unionization rates, redistribution of the farmlands… This is the reason why the first thing fascists do is murdering all communists, anarchists and socialists

      I suggest you read more on what fascism actually was, and what communism has historically actually been.
