I don't like these "polemic" definitions. I neither like the marxist-leninist definition (everything not socialism is fascism) nor the idea that any state-socialism is fascism, even if it becomes authoritarian or totalitarian.
The best definition for fascism I recently learned is "A belief in inequality based on a mythological identity" (like for example race or gender). See this book: What Is Fascism? An Excerpt From “Fascism Today: What It Is and How to End It”
What I call socialists who insist on principles and advocate for supporting fascism is "stupid entitled children". But they are not really the problem. We just saw in France that the centrists there rather cooperate with fascists than with socialists.
