what does "fascism" even mean? i get the impression people use it to describe "things they don't like". is there any clear definition?

Fascism means authoritarian nationalism with contempt for democracy, glorification of strength, and scapegoating of enemies. Trump ticks a lot of those boxes—that’s why I used the word.

It is one version of authoritarianism, yes.
