Usage notes
It is very common to use âfascistâ in an almost indiscriminate manner for political opponents, cf. George Orwell, âWhat is Fascism?â (1944): âIt will be seen that, as used, the word âFascismâ is almost entirely meaningless. In conversation, of course, it is used even more wildly than in print. I have heard it applied to farmers, shopkeepers, Social Credit, corporal punishment, fox-hunting, bull-fighting, the 1922 Committee, the 1941 Committee, Kipling, Gandhi, Chiang Kai-Shek, homosexuality, Priestley's broadcasts, Youth Hostels, astrology, women, dogs and I do not know what else.â
