It’s the same argument against the death penalty: you can stop imprisonment/slow descent and turn it around. You can never come back from death/fascism.
To be fair, that’s not really true for fascism. It doesn’t usually end peacefully and almost never easily, but historically it certainly has come to an end in various places in various ways. I’m not saying this to say that it’s somehow okay, but rather that should it come to pass, people should not give up trying to thwart it.
I don’t know of any fascist countries that escaped fascism by themselves. They all had to be beaten. That’s what I was referring to in part, and the rest being that a fascist takeover is the death of the government and country. Whatever comes after Mayt not be recognizable from before.
Hm, I think South Africa might be a contender. Apartheid was ended by a white prime minister and then Nelson Mandela was peacefully allowed to be elected.

Spain did. Though only when Franco died of heart failure
