But 'fascist' is such an illfitting term, if you want to talk about what you perceive as desire for a strong state (from say, Sanders and Trump supporters, which I'm getting the impression that this is what you're getting at), there are more suitable terms than just referencing a plainly far right political ideology. That's just my standard take.
For what it's worth, I prefer to keep usage of certain terms consistent and relevant. I'm not a fan of 'bending' them to fit a specific context as I think it is somewhat meaningless.
Irvine was making a comment on a specific post about jailing the Clintons. That is a somewhat fascist view, or at least, a view of undemocratic, authoritarian societies.
I agree, throwing that term around over a broad group, especiallyl on the left, is not really applicable.
