The fact you think half of the things you listed Republicans are doing are either fascist or fascist adjacent shows why this is such a bad idea. Most of those things are things every ruling party does or aren't fascist.

Not to mention, just calling Brazil, Italy and whoever else potentially fascist is ridiculous.

Fascism has no meaning anymore because people like you. If you want to actually fight against fascism don't call everybody fascists.

Fascism has a lot of mean, you trying to minimize it doesn’t change anything. The silver lining is the fascists in power are failing fast, hopefully before we fully end up in the fascist endgame of all out war.
Fascism doesn't have a lot of meanings. That is the problem I am trying to point out. When everyone who is right of center can be a fascist because they oppose abortion and whatever else the post was saying, it loses all meaning.

Do you take the same view when it comes to socialism or communism? Would it be fine to label the majority of the Democratic Party socialist?
