No but that’s also not fascist. It’s extremist and violent and a misguided urge to fight fascism by destroying its symbols (a Tesla which might as well be an attempt by some upper middle class dad to buy a car that’s better for the environment before Musk became such a PoS) or fighting the people that uphold the system (which is a bit much in the current climate. At least here in Germany I don’t see the police in this role yet).
Also, keep in mind that if left extremists become violent, cars burn and police in riot gear are attacked. If fascists become violent people are burning and the police is looking the other way. Even though I and any sane person should condemn violent behavior, I vehemently do not agree with the horse shoe theory that the more extreme you go the more left and right becomes the same.
Fascist safe spaces is certainly something like X these days and what’s that other thing called? Truth social? I also wouldn’t expect any sensible discussions on right wing news websites like breitbart if that’s still around.
