They are dictators in a despotic government; but what about the Atredies was fascist? They famously listened to their people. They literally incorporated people that were not part of their race, religion or species and treated them as equal. That’s not fascism.
Do they do something in the other books that’s fascist? I’ve only ever read the first one.
The genocide, literal imperialism, and holy warring doesn’t count as enough for you?
I was more talking about the Mongols, personally, who famously killed anyone that resisted, but idk, I don’t think you need to be talking about converting everything to the state to be fascistic.
