Also looks to me like Communism rises above and is better than fascist ideologies. Sounds good to me.

I'm really not sure what the intent was here. Was this made by a Comrade?

It seems to be a play on "horseshoe theory" where libs always place themselves in the middle and leftist and right wingers are on the ends, closer together. With the implication that leftists have "circled back" to facsism.

There is also "Fishhook theory", Where the same principle is true, but more in line with this "stick theory" where the Fishhook places the far right beside liberalism/centrism.

In this one, it's a stick, facsism is at the bottom, Dems and Republicans are just barely above that and communism is at the top. The main difference between this and fish hook is that fish hook relies on the curve coming back to make them close, while stick theory says they are just close period.

Political illiteracy from a hexbear user? That's certainly something I didn't expect.
