The followup is the pointing out that China and Russia therefore are not antifascist.

Which is utterly irrelevant to what we were actually talking about.

Yes, correct. It was specifically a "trap" laid for you, not a contribution to the discussion of the founding fathers. That's what I'm trying to explain to you but you're determined to debate-bro literally everything, including my explanation of what happened.
