This has the same problem as ChristoFascism.

EuroFascism WAS Christian! There is nothing novel here that should afford the creation of a new moniker.

Similarly, EuroFascism WAS the height of technology. IBM, Ford, VW, etc all doing the utmost to be the cutting edge in technology all serving the needs of the EuroFascists.

It's NOT NEW! IT'S THE SAME FUCKING HISTORICAL PROCESS!!!

If there's one thing the US is obsessed with, it's refusing to acknowledge anything bad as originating from its fundamental characteristics. Which I suppose makes sense from the standpoint of the state's interests, considering it is a country founded through genocide and built with slavery, which tries to whitewash itself as a "freedom project."
