That is because the ultimate goal is to control the masses.
So, same goal equals similar techniques.
Well, I think there might be a little more than that, about the circular nature of politics. For example, the left generally supports government regulation of private business with extreme branches supporting communism or socialism. The right generally supports releaving businesses from the burden of government regulation with the extreme branches believing that the free market will totally regulate itself with no interference needed from the government. Thing is, if private industry is freed from governmet regulation, they use their freedom to influence government (aka lobbying) and the more freedom they get, the more influence they get over the government. Eventually, either extreme branch turns private industry and government into the same entity, even though they both claim to hate each other.
