You guys are polluting what is an otherwise neutral and decently expansive term with a few very narrow and oversimplified applications. It doesn't have to be anything like Nazi Germany. There are many brands of fascism, and fascism is only an approximation of what I believe. It embodies syncretic politics, or looking for solutions outside the traditional left-right political spectrum.
It's fairly simple to me: Population reduction is the best solution to almost all of mankind's most dreadful problems, and population reduction can only be accomplished by an authoritarian system. An authoritarian system can still be a functional republic just like our own, but your duty to society is much greater.
I know the survivalist redneck bible-thumping libertarians would never go for it, but to be honest, we should have just exterminated all of you in the Civil War. See? That's me being a Nazi.
