“They’re not Nazis unless they’re from the Nazi regime of Germany. Otherwise they’re just sparkling Fascists.” -you.

But then, by your own logic, we can’t call them Fascists either, since that term was made to describe Italian Authoritarianism.

    Fascism describes the rhetoric used to prop up autocracy. It's the propaganda portion, and leads to genocide campaigns and wars.

    Mussolini might have developed fascism so it was admired by industrialists who wanted to control the masses, but it wasn't his alone.
