      Sure, and the Nazis had similar ideas about their right to rule - despite not being Jews. One might observe that which group is currently doing the fascism is far less important than the fact that they’re doing fascism. I clearly stated “Stop conflating the bastards who did this with their ethnic/religious group”, are you really arguing against that? You do want persecution of minority groups because of what other members of the group has done? Because in that case you’re not opposing fascists - you just take issue with these particular fascists, while embracing parts of the same fascistic ideology and logic.

        hitler blatantly used the bible to justify the holocaust. americans used the bible to justify slavery. the current US regime is using christianity to commit treason and acts of war RIGHT NOW. using religion to commit heinous acts has been the MO since religion was invented, it is literally a tool that those in power wield intentionally. it isnt hard to see unless you ust dont want to.
