Not every person of the right is a fascist.

Of course, changing the mind of a non-dillusional person is already hard enough.

The creation of jobs is everything. If your life stops being a competition for survival, people outside your social ingroup stop being existential threats.

Being right-wing has evolved pretty much into straight fascism these days. There is no real middle ground for moderates anymore.

Could you elaborate, please? I have the impression that calling somebody a fascist is used inflationary.

Nonsensical accusations can not be elaborated. When real totalitarianism will arrive nobody will listen to their cries of help because they've been screaming for decades.
