FASCISM (n): A political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation, race, and/or religion above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.
I might add that such a "philosophy, movement, or regime" is, more often than not, patriarchal; that is, it is a government that is composed of men who rule the state for their own benefit. Women in a fascist state tend to be subjugated as wives, housekeepers, caregivers, and breeding stock for the male "Master Race". For example, ISIS, if allowed to exist, would be a patriarchal fascist state.
Thus, if the current crop of neo-Facists have their way, women in America would likely be removed from all positions of authority -- i.e., doctors, engineers, lawyers, politicians, professors, scientists, teachers, et cetera -- and kept at home for the pleasure and sufferance of their husbands.
And woe betide any woman who speaks out against a Fascist regime, for abandonment, abuse, and repeated assault would be her fate -- just ask any burka-clad Muslim woman with scars across her back . . . or Heather Heyer . . .
