I may have misread; I cannot tell at this time. However, even though you did type 'politically' it is senseless to divorce politics from economics and so I still can say that you are wrong to compare the two.
As to politically, Communism is nearly always internationalist and progressive in terms of social policy (i.e. no racism, sexism, or classes.) Fascism can practice the same, I guess???, but I do not know if it is really safe to say that it can.
Honestly, Communism and Fascism are a far cry from one another. I usually like to just consider that Fascism allows for private ownership, but indeed they are very different politically and socially.

Fascism is not really that 'collectivist' in that it is 'individualistic' with its 'private ownership' necessity.

Indeed, but its too much to bare when you type with faux knowledge like Dr House is habited. It may be of no surprise that my English Professor is . . . not liking me . . . but as far as a lesson that she teaches us goes, introductions are important for these sorts of stuff. Who knows who will be repeating your words and contributing to the general ignorance therewith.
