Obviously, with the power of hindsight, we can see that Mussolini didn't end up being the socialist that he was in his early days. However, it's still interesting to the influences of Marxism on Fascism as an ideology. They do share a lot of characteristics despite their many differences. This is why the claim that these two ideologies are polar opposites isn't true. They're different? Sure. Polar opposites? Not exactly.
