I've always found it interesting that the US is preoccupied with fighting communism propaganda but not pro-Fascist propaganda.
It wasn't always that way.
tl;dr: 1946 Department of Defense film called "Don't Be a Sucker" that "dramatizes the destructive effects of racial and religious prejudice" and the dangers of fascism pretty blatantly.
Communism threatens capital. Fascism mostly does not.
So it's never been about democracy after all.
