It's fascist in the anti-communist sense sure, but most Americans would be fascist then.
Most Americans are fascist, the same way most Germans were in the 1930s.
No, it's fascist in the sense of nativism and public-private collaboration that was normative in fascist states. Most Americans are ambivalent to communism.
You can't not be nativist to some degree. Otherwise all you have is an economic zone, not a country.

That's a completely ridiculous definition of fascism and again, if you pick that most Americans would be fascist and consider it a good thing.

Most Americans, who are working class, want the state to collaborate with their employers against their interests? Quite a bold assertion.
