    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.

      ?

      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?

          One of the main pillars of every fascist movement is “we’re the only normal ones”. It’s how they justify othering, persecuting, and abusing everyone who’s not a cishet white fascist Christian, preferably male.
