capitalist Red Scare propaganda

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.
