It's not about who uses the term, it's about who uses it correctly. Fascism has clear tenets and a pattern they use to rise to power. They attack media, intellectuals, and schools, erode trust in government and democratic elections, all mixed up in nationalist rhetoric like "make [nation-state] great again" and identify "other" groups to blame for that nations problems, usually queer communities and minority ethnic groups.

Do you see the pattern yet?

> Labeling someone a nazi when they don't self-identify as a nazi is simply political idiocracy.

....what? No. Is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea democratic? How people "self-identify" in politics is irrelevant, what matters is what they DO.
