It IS a fair critique to link fascism with relatively unchecked executive power - martial law, give or take a nuance or two.
A famous example of this was how mussolini made the trains run on time. Faced with an intractable bureaucracy that had spent years creating layers of excuses such that no one person could ever be held to account, the trains were run in a very Latin slipshod manner. You now Latins. If ya don't, I'll be happy to dish.
Anyway, Mussolini had a couple of late-running conductors met at prominent stations during the busiest hours of the day and summarily executed. When everyone in the transportation system understood that they had gone in against a sicilian when DEATH was on the line, the trains suddenly became marvelously dependable. Mussolini WAS the Brute Squad.
Fascism as a political philosophy has many tenets. To me, the central theme of Fascism is racial unity.. I.e. the opposite of diversity. The modern left is hell bent on breaking every stronghold of racial homogeneity, pushing racial diversity into every school, every institution, every gated community in the US.
to call modern progressives Fascist is to put a completely new spin on what Fascism is, completely divorced of what it was in historical practice. It’s gibberish, really .
