That’s by-the-book gaslighting. Fascism has a definition in the dictionary and thousands of years of specific examples of how that definition came to be. When someone’s actions fall under that definition on an extremely consistent basis, the word is 100% appropriate. “everything I don’t like is fascism” is, literally, a phrase ONLY fascists use.
1
often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race 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
2
: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control
