You have no idea what Fascism is and are doing more harm than good to your side of this debate. People like you can get the whole group painted as historically illiterate idiots with nothing to contribute.
Very interesting, did you bother to read your link?
“Fascism is a form of political and social behavior that arises when the middle class, finding its hopes frustrated by economic instability coupled with political polarization and deadlock, abandons traditional ideologies and turns, with the approbation of police and military forces, to a poorly-defined but emotionally appealing soteriology of national unity, immediate and direct resolution of problems, and intolerance for dissent.”
I will leave the drawing of parallels to the current paradigm as an exercise to the reader.
A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. I blame the confusion around the word fascism on polarizing concepts from movies like "Freedom to Fascism" by Aaron Russo.
The forces in this world to mis-inform the general population on these very important subjects is so strong, that I would say most people fail to truly understand what is reality and what is fantasy.
The word fascism just has no clear concept behind it. It's a hodgepodge of historical movements and political ideas. It's impossible for it to not cause confusion.

If you think that's what's going on you're not paying attention.
