I don't really disagree, but it's also becoming pointless to use these terms. Naming Trump/Musk as fascists is mostly correct but all this does is make his adherents question whether fascism is "really all that bad" (or reject with lines like "NAZIs were socialist [nonsense] and Trump isn't a socialist, ergo..."

It's not enough to point out that Trump is fascist and therefore bad. You need to go the next step and say why fascism is bad.

(Yes, we've gotten to this timeline, where we have to go back and actually describe why fascism is bad -- where the press is reporting on proposed ethnic cleansing in Gaza with statements like "outlandish plan" and "unrealistic" rather than naming it for what it is: a brutal and immoral plan to exterminate an entire people. Oh, and now we need to explain why that is actually a Really Awful Thing)
