    Small note

    It’s how they justify othering, persecuting, and abusing everyone who’s not a cishet white fascist Christian, preferably male.

    This is incorrect

    It’s how they justify othering, persecuting, and abusing everyone who’s not like them

    You can have Fascism in any circle. “Communist” Occupied China is an example of non-white Fascism. And you could point to some military groups in Africa as well

      I know. The part you quoted was in a separate paragraph because it was specifically about the American Fascist Party rather than fascists in general.

      Other examples include Modi’s fascist Hindunationalism and Netanyahu’s fascist apartheid state where the favored religion is Judaism.

        This is not how Apartheid works in the West Bank. Zionism may be dependant on Judaism, but that’s not the dividing line.

        It is ethnic apartheid between ethnic Jews / white westerners and Arabs. Religion has little to do with what is actually enforced. there are tons of secular Jews. There are evangelical Christian settlements in the West Bank too.

        It’s about denying rights to Arabs living in Palestine.

        ?

        It wasn’t separate from this

        One of the main pillars of every fascist movement is “we’re the only normal ones”.

            Do you really need me to quote their whole paragraph to show that they’re in the same paragraph?
