Our modern day fascism doesn't revolve around race as much as it does around ethnicity and culture.

Hating people because they are inherently worse has gone out of style because that's what the Nazis did. Nowadays it's about being where you belong. The Jews™️ are fine as long they stay in Israel and kill people that we (the fascists in country xyz) don't care about.

That's also why across Europe fascist parties can work on common goals: "Let's make sure we fuck over our opponents together. You on your side, we on ours."

When did debunking ever stop willfully ignorant people?

Yeah, racism is kinda old-school powerless these days. Culture wars, though...

Which is funny. There's so much to learn from other cultures. To enjoy, understand, adopt, share... Then there's, "I JUST WANT IT HOW I WANT IT!!! FUCK ANYONE THAT DOESNT ADHERE TO ME!!!" And that is indeed fascism. Well, not directly, but it's how you give a platform to fascism, since you'll basically vote whatever state is pandering to you and, "ta-da!" The bad history repeats...
