There were fascists in Europe until the 1970s.
The MAGA movement is fascist but it also has strong overtones of Nazi (blaming immigrants, camps, detention without due peocess).
Yes, there is nationalism without any socialism, but saying they shouldn't be called Nazis is diminishing the evil that is currently being done.
There are literally fascists in Europe right now lol, it didn't just go away, Macron almost to the fascist party and the AFD is the new fascist german party with huge support. Orbán fulfills at least half the the fascist checkbox if not more.
I am not sure if you have opened my links, but you probably should,
You would see that these are explicitly mentioned as telltale sign of Fascism.
If you want here is an excellent video explaining fascism, specifically white fascism https://youtu.be/5Luu1Beb8ng
I have really not sure what you are getting at, they are nazis because National is pronounced as Nazional in german and that got shortened to nazi, they aren't called nazis because it starts with Na and there is a zi in Sozialistiche.
Here it is how it's pronounced if you are interested https://youtu.be/VxxFl5Xc8nc
And the socialism has literally nothing to do with it, NSDAP was socialist the same way north korea is democratic, you know it's called Democratic People's Republic of Korea
Again, this implies that Nazi is like a stronger word for fascists, it's not, it's not like some is a fascist and then they do more bad and become a nazi. The political ideology is called fascism because it originates from Italy, from Mussolinis party.
All nazis are fascists. neo-nazis drew on the nazi movement and borrowed their imagery etc, but they never committed anything close to what the actual nazis did.
MAGAs are fascists who pretty much check all the checkboxes on the fascist list that as I said I have linked above.
