You have a point.

I copied my definition from Dictionary.com, which did not list anything else substantially different. Following my post, I googled the term and read various references detailing the 14 points that you mention.

It is arguable to what extent any authoritarian regime could be called Fascist, based on that list. Granted there are worse examples in history.

My whole point is that fascism points to an overbearing government restricting or controlling society, markets, etc behind the scenes perharps. It is not free market corporations rising above the power or influence of the government.

China might embody more of those 14 traits than the USA now, but hopefully neither country continues to that extreme.
