This is why I don't like trump being called a nazi, a nazi was a nickname for the german fascist based on the name of the political party NSDAP, specifically the N part, National with the ti part being pronounced the same as the zi part in nazi.
Trump is an american fascist. When you call him a nazi it paints the picture of the ultra villified almost over the top hollywood nazi and it muddies the water and lets other fascist media pundits dismiss it over exaggeration.
Now after being pedantic I prefer these lists tlto check if you live in a fascist state

Spoiler alert: the US is under control of a fascist government.
Nazis are a particularly evil type of fascist. It is the entire point of the lable.
