Eller Stalins Sovjet.

På samma sätt är det nu i det vänster-liberal-globalist-fascistiska EU dvs. rasism fullt ut, och en folkgrupp och alla som råkar bo i närheten och talar samma språk skall klumpas ihop med dessa och utrotas.
Fascismen och rasismen har fått en ny skepnad och frodas i "det fredsälskande multikulturella toleranta och demokratiska väst".

Nej, du fantiserar. Fascismen frodas i det deklinerande skithålsimperiet Putleristan.
Yes, Putin and Russia are fascist – a political scientist shows how they meet the textbook definition
https://theconversation.com/yes-puti...inition-179063
Having written about Putin’s Russia as quasi- or proto-fascist already in the mid-2000s, I know from personal experience that few took my claims seriously, often arguing tautologically that Putin had constructed a “Putinist” system.Allt som Putlers Ryssland har företagit sig det senaste decenniet, ivrigt påhejat av de skrikande småtrollen på FB, uppfyller, enligt professor Motyl, kriterierna för fascistiska system. Se på krossandet av demokratiska institutioner, kväsandet av oppositionen, förkvävandet av yttrandefriheten, de drakoniska straffen för kritik av regimen, den osminkade och högljudda nationalismen, rättfärdigandet av krig, maktkoncentrationen hos en elit av militärer och byråkrater, och i toppen en "ofelbar" ledare kring vilken en grotesk personkult byggts upp.
But as a political scientist who studies Ukraine, Russia and the USSR empirically, theoretically and conceptually, I believe Putin’s brutal invasion of Ukraine suggests that a reconsideration of the term’s applicability to Russia is definitely in order.

Putin’s Russia also fits the bill. The political system is unquestionably authoritarian – some might say totalitarian.
Och nu senast även avlivandet av regimens forne trotjänare Prigozjin, en direkt upprepning av de långa knivarnas natt 1934.

Måhända kan man ändå finna tröst i vetskapen om att fascistiska system brukar braka ihop förr eller senare. Eller som Motyl säger:
Fascist states are unstable. Personality cults disintegrate with time, as leaders grow old. Today’s Putin, with his bloated face, is no match for the vigorous Putin of 20 years ago.Amen. Fast fascismens försvarare brukar nog fortsätta väsnas även efter att systemet kollapsat.
Fascist regimes are overcentralized, and the information that reaches the supreme leader is often sugarcoated. Putin’s disastrous decision to invade Ukraine may have been partly due to his lacking accurate information about the condition of the Ukrainian and Russian armies.
Finally, fascist states are prone to wars, because members of the secret police and generals, whose raison d'etre is violence, are overrepresented in the ruling elite. In addition, the ideology glorifies war and violence, and a militarist fervor helps to legitimate the supreme leader and reinforce his charisma.
Fascist states usually prosper at first; then, intoxicated by victory, they make mistakes and start losing. Putin won decisively in his wars in Chechnya and in Georgia, and he appears to be headed for defeat in Ukraine.
I believe Putin’s fascist Russia faces a serious risk of breakdown in the not-too-distant future. All that’s missing is a spark that will rile the people and elites and move them to take action. That could be an increase in fuel prices, the development that led to a citizen revolt in Kazakhstan earlier this year; a blatantly falsified election, such as the one that led to riots in autocratic Belarus in 2020; or thousands of body bags returning to Russia from the war in Ukraine.
