How do you define
fascism? My reasons are probably obvious, but still I'd like to know your definitions.

BobHaleA central Government under one leader where the state has all the rights and individuals have none.
If it's any comfort (and it shouldn't be) I think you are heading for e new feudalism rather than a new fascism.

BobHaleFurther to my definition you could add
In theory the ideological opposite to communism, in practice indistinguishable from it.

KallehI kinda like Wikipedia's definition:
Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of radical authoritarian ultranationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and control of industry and commerce, which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe.
Also sounds familiar - "fake news;" nominate only ultra-conservatives; ban Muslims; separate families; set stiff tariffs; make enemies with allies; etc.
