Blackshirts and Reds: Rational Fascism and the Overthrow of Communism by Michael Parenti

informative medium-paced

4.5

Excellent read on how communism became "so scary". It's super approachable for people who are just starting to read political idealogy. 

I really liked how he got into what the harsh realities of post-communist countries looked like. Super informative and would recommend to anyone.
