Referring people elsewhere for definitions of fascism is a cop out. If you are going to say anything about the word, you should be able to define it. If I wanted to watch YouTube videos, I wouldn't be reading your stuff. Calling other people lazy when they ask you a straightforward question about a topic you have written about is basically avoiding the issue, probably because you are unable to define it in a way that suits your interests. It is tantamount to saying "There really is no such thing as fascism, so we shouldn't use that word." If that is what you think, at least have the balls to say it.

What nonsensical, overshooting-the-moon, crap are you talking about?

The Q&A above ARE my views on defining where and why the term has been used in social and cultural formats.

Me referencing a YT video on the 2nd paragraph of a 11+ paragraph reply doesn't negate anything written about the topic at hand.

I'm not here to give readers a just-take-it-from-me pat answer, a one-liner definition, of the word.

My whole push here is always, 'Do Your Own' research, figure out the context of an issue yourself, come to your own critical-thinking conclusions. I'm not your guru!

i.e., "Here's my impressions and preface on the matter. Want to go deeper. Check this out..."

Btw, what exist is anything anyone wants to focus on. We're living in a if we 'Say It' and 'Repeat It' therefore-it-must-be-and-stay-true society. Living and lurking behind keyboards, in an electronic land of illusions and hyperbole.

HINT: I'm fairy confidant the first words of my reply to the Question #2 were super clear:

"I'll be the last person here to perform for another's own curiosities and intellectual-efforts."
