@AnarchoNinaWrites @bombniks And what I was referring to in the 2nd paragraph was that, if you don't define what's fascism beyond a vague term for an authoritarian state, then the term is as pliable as plasticine, and it can be used against an actually progressive government.
So you can, for example, have the free speech guys complain about how a government is fascist when a new law protecting a minority against fake news is drafted.
