I def agree but I've used "proto-fascist" in conversation in the past and it tends to not go over well. I've recently been tying it to the end of the second world war because the US essentially took the torch from Germany. So like our current flavor developed after the war.
It doesn't go over well with whom?
Just in the past in mixed groups of people. I've used it around friends and had to explain it. I didn't mean "not go over well" in any sort of catastrophic way lol.
