A square is a rectangle but not all rectangles are squares.

Just say authoritarianism. Fascism has happened exactly once in modern history. Words have meaning and you don't get to assign values to them because one helps your political motive better than the other.

Fascism has happened exactly once in modern history.

Are you putting the fascist regimes of Germany, Italy and Spain into one basket? Also the current regime in Russia?

Nazism isn't fascism is quite the take. I can't tell if you're a troll or just a pedant who goes about being pedantic wrong.
