It is fascism when...
-
It is fascism when conscientiousness is failed to be seen as not subject to the Rule of Law. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms explicitly recognizes the Supremacy of God in its very first line so the people might have a guard from fascist takeover ( A.K.A. capitalist mentality that insists and deludedly promotes the notion that life needs money instead of allowing nature to take its course in an emergency situation and letting the people take care of themselves without being thwarted by notions of 'property value').
May the 'crown' turn nice because it has many resources that could assist- all it has to do is recognize that its name implies a royal notion and for something to be royal it has to understand that its highest responsibility is to the truth (because it knows life without truth is 'hell') then acknowledge that pride is sin (because fate is real).
A belief in evil instantly removes any just authority.

Tough question. Monotheism is the ultimate form of totalitarianism and fascist in it's very core. I have the opinion that conscientiousness by default is opposite to totalitarianism and thus to fascism.
Given the fact that there are countries, like Canada, which have their laws based on this concept of supremacy of a deity over the individual, I'd say that they have no need to protect from a fascist takeover as it already is fascist to begin with. I live in a country which has the concept in its constitution that no human or imaginary entity has supremacy over the individual and nor does the state. We are all equal.
Btw, I don't think that "fate" is real, it's an abstract concept and is open to various different interpretations and can be twisted to mean anything convenient to whatever issue someone wants to apply it to. _________________

if you think you 'chose' to write what you did I would suggest analyzing the process that lead to said 'choice'.
Evil is not real because the entirety of everything is just one thing and not two things called good and evil. Life is a singular soul made diverse by the experiences of the ego. No thought or deed comes from nothing. Everything in the now has an infinite past and can only go into the future in one logical way. The problem most people have is the consideration that God cannot do some things- like not be God. _________________ you are a conduit of experience

Discussing imaginary entities as if they are "beings" is an insult to human intellectuality. All those abstract concepts, like "sin" and "pride" are a total waste of time. nice for philosophers, but of no value whatsoever for those who live in reality. However, it does provide amusement to some, and therefor it does have some sort of amusement factor. _________________

What do you do when you are the only thing that exists, you have no beginning and you can't die... you play a play where you forget what you are, give yourself the grandest drama only to find yourself again. Also- it doesn't matter if there is a point or not- truth is choice is impossible.... so the truth may seem absurd but it is still the truth. _________________ you are a conduit of experience

Is the is? Does a thing called existence exist? Is that true? If it is, would that not mean that suggesting otherwise would be a lie?

So, in a sense, we are all just playing with ourselves?
Seriously though...why not give yourself a grand drama that doesn't include so much pain...you know, one that's a little more enjoyable? I can come up with a million more fantasies I would take over my current reality. Why hurt yourself for entertainment? _________________ -Brother Adam (we are all one family)

I Hope you don't mean me when you say "you" bro, because the above doesn't fit when you addressed "me" with this statement. For one, I'm not the kind of person who invents imaginary things like a devil to triumph over and I don't feel the need for me to "triumph" over anything for that matter. If you assume that every person on our planet is occupied with such nonsense you might have lost touch with reality my friend.
Second, I do not agree that "all" suffering is illusion and drama, I've seen too much of it in my lifetime not to know the difference between illusion and what's real. Try and tell a victim of a violent gang rape who is just brought into first aid at a hospital with stabwounds all over her body that her suffering is "all illusion and drama" and see if she, or the hospital staff, can agree with you. _________________
