The only real box i can think of is restrictive voting, but even then the path to voting rights is open to everyone. The only other definitive fascist thing is the speedy trial and execution in the movie, but that can be vague authoritarianism to future policing and evidence. We don’t get to know enough about the economics of ST to really say.
You said you could only think of one box it checks, so I gave you more boxes.
Now you’re telling me no individual box mentioned is inherently fascist.
Do you see how you’re moving the goal posts?
How many boxes does a government need to check before it can be considered fascist? Does it have to contain a Consul guarded by people in tunics carrying fasces or it’s just Sparkling Authoritarianism?

You don’t think The Federation was nationalistic or militaristic?
Neither of which are inherently fascist.

Nationalism and militarism are not inherently fascist. A society can be nationalist and militarist and not be fascist.
I didn’t say they were. Reread this thread.
