Ok, so thinking aloud time:
Fascism, focussing on "hating others" (the outgroup) is inefficient.
Emotions are important to get the complete picture, but i want to ignore emotions for a bit here. Because emotions would just make facism worse, and i want to focus on the efficiency part.
So i heard humans most important trait was tool use. I want to dispute that, i think collaboration (beyond animal packs) is the greatest trait we have. Helping each other beyond a short lived action is actually helpful, like dividing work for example.
So when fascism ostracises an outgroup, it destroys the efficiency humans can achieve. There's unnecessary struggle, outgroup forced to push back, ingroup people that want collaboration push back, just a lot of struggle that is completely unnecessary.
So i say fascism is not just an offence to human rights and such, but an inefficient way to shape human society, beyond all humanitarian or empathetic concerns.
