You can be a fascist from another country other than Germany, and in that case, you are just a fascist. I know people like to use the term because it bites, but it cheapens your case IMO. You could argue DeSantis is fascist leaning - but he is not a nazi.

Anyway - back to election talk you nazis.
Finally this thread gets to the good stuff - semantics!

I think if you're a neo-Nazi it's pretty fair to call you a Nazi... and most of those aren't from or in any way connected to Germany.
