The American far right is mostly too illiterate to understand, much less formulate a coherent fascist outlook. So we get social engineering hobbyists manipulating Christian White Nationalists to blindly, if incoherently, support fascism in return for support on taking the bodily autonomy of women, for example. This is an issue of very limited value to fascists except by way of coalition building.

At the most, its kind of the useful idiot of this weird Christo-conservatism.
