Understandable. Fascism is part of totalitarianism, which is part of authoritarianism.
Think of it like Family/Genus/Species in biology:
Family - Authoritarian
Genus - Totalitarian
Species - Fascist
Getting the Family right and Species wrong is the difference between a tiger and a house cat!

Cutting NASA's workforce by about 10 percent. That's a boost to the Chinese and Russians. And the guy in charge of SpaceX made this decision? That's a total conflict of interest. Moreover, firing all probationary employees shows they're not serious about evaluating programs. It's a machine gun.
