- I remember fascism

Ah, then you must recognize its Definition as extremely similar to your Cult:

"Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement. It first emerged in Italy after World War I under the leadership of Benito Mussolini.

Core Characteristics of Fascism

Dictatorial Leadership: Centers power in a single, autocratic leader who demands total loyalty and submission.

Extreme Nationalism and Ultranationalism: Exalts the nation"and often a specific ethnic or racial group"above individual interests and rights.

Suppression of Opposition: Forcibly silences political dissent, bans rival political parties, dismantles democratic institutions, and uses secret police or state surveillance.

Militarism and Violence: Glorifies military strength, views conflict or national struggle as therapeutic or necessary, and relies on paramilitary groups (such as Mussolini's Blackshirts).

State Control and Corporatism: Regulates society and the economy heavily, often controlling nominally private corporate enterprise through state-mandated planning, cartels, and national interest mandates.

Scapegoating: Capitalizes on social and economic anxieties by blaming internal or external enemies"such as minority groups, immigrants, leftists, or rival nations." more
