npub1g0tuf634rz4suczwj7kgnecr6cyt0eu9xmp3sp0fku68mqehq4msp3tvm4 (npub1g0t…tvm4) It's my go to definition of fascism (borrowed somewhat from Madeleine Albright's book of that name): the reduction of a group to subhuman status.
Add in Hannah Arendt's point and I think that's clear and solid: paraphrasing, but: fascists don't believe what they say; they don't need you to believe what they say. They say what would have to be true to justify the things they are going to do.
