Hmm. The prospect of having Chinese "Nazis" rather than communists seize power makes me wonder how the former's atrocities and cruelty would stack up against the latter's (I don't mean to sound callous or detached when I say this, I'm just wondering for the sake of the discussion).

I mean, the tens of millions dead by Mao's hand IOTL--whether intentionally so and/or an accidental byproduct of his policies--is a human catastrophe that's damned hard to surpass. There's also the modern PRC's one-party authoritarianism and human rights abuses to factor into the equation as well.

And now, I find myself imagining a hypothetical ASB confrontation between "Nazi" and communist China alike. For obvious reasons, I bet they'd have much more in common than they'd like to admit;
a potential war between the two would certainly be something to write about.
EnigmaJones's timeline Dead by Dawn features this kind of confrontation between a Nazi and communist China. However, Nazi China (the United People's Socialist Republic of China, or USPRC) is more influenced by the Strasserists, the leftist/anticapitalist Nazis, than OTL Nazi Germany was.

That makes me wonder where Comrade Stalin would end up ITTL. Does he die, live and remain one amongst the teeming masses, or join the Whites and perhaps become a far-right counterpart to the Uncle Joe IOTL?
Stalin was an ideologically committed Marxist before WW1, he may end up dying in the Russian civil war if it still occurs or flee into exile after the Reds lose the war. He was a seminary student (training to become an Orthodox priest) when he was first introduced to Marxist ideas, and kicked out of the seminary for atheism. After that he was involved in bank robberies to secure funding for the Bolsheviks, kind of a cross between Al Capone and Che Guevara.
 
Something tells me that these sinofascists could adopt certain ideals from the ancient Chinese philosophy of legalism. Is there a way to reconcile fascism with legalism?
It would be interesting to see a KMT that turned itself into an ideologically based mass movement like the CPC, that's probably the only way to end up with a noncommunist China. The KMT never had a clearly defined ideology beyond Sun Yixian's 3 Principles, and its strongest supporters were a coalition of landlords in inland China and the newly established bourgeoisie centered in coastal cities like Shanghai.
