Just like how Facebook isn't a social media website, since MySpace Tom already "invented the concept". Do I have your logic down right? What kind of argument

What kind of argument is this, exactly? Nazis were Fascists in an objective, demonstrable way. That's not something that's up for debate, and it is extremely suspicious for anyone to attempt to correct the record on this.
It's like people who are "skeptical" of the holocaust. That's not skepticism, it's antisemitism, because the Holocaust isn't up for debate. There are millions of pieces of evidence that it occurred to the degree we understand it to have occurred, just as there are millions of pieces of evidence that the Nazi party was fascist.
Italians may have "invented" fascism (mostly just coined the term), but they were not historically unique, and they certainly aren't the only fascist movement ever to have occurred.
The arguments you make sound like the kind of cryptofascist politics that come out of white nationalist groups that aim to normalize modern day right-wing extremism. If you don't want to get grouped together with those people, consider not talking exactly like they do about far-right nationalism and authoritarianism
- ceilingcorner 6y agoYou’re reading a ton of stuff into my comment that isn’t there. The origin of the term fascist comes from the Italian Fascist party. That’s what it was called. That’s where the word comes from. This is a historical fact. That is literally all I wrote. Absolutely no where did I say the Nazis weren’t fascists or defend them in any way whatsoever. Thank you for reminding me to never, ever discuss politics on this website. No one even reads what you wrote and instead projects their own inane political universe onto you. No thanks.
