Fascism is ultranationalistism. It’s believing your culture, country, and people are fundamentally superior to others and therefore you are justified in spreading it against people’s will.

“Blood and soil” and all that.

I guess this gets into semantic pedantics. Believing one’s set of sensibilities is superior to all others and all that. But point taken.

No it's not pedantics, you just used a word totally wrong. CAD software preventing you from making a bomb is not fascism at all.

Strictly speaking, fascism is ultra-etatism - "Everything in the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State", to quote Mussolini himself. It does not actually require an ethnic or racial component, although that is incredibly common in practice simply because those provide a readily adoptable basis for it all that strongly resonates with people with relatively simple and straightforward propaganda.
