Well I don't think fascism is the same as a dictatorship or authoritarianism. Like there have been many monarchies over history and geography, but they can't all be collapsed into fascism. And also there is the question of whether the USSR was just as bad as nazi germany?
Wrt swiss military, it is irrelevant as I specified the kind of activities which entail a plurality of the citizenry participating in the brutality and subjugation of another people. What people are the swiss attempting to eradicate? What people have generations of swiss dedicated themselves to replacing? It isn't the structure of the military, it is the mandatory lived experience and indoctrination in the processes of ongoing genocide. As an individual, you are forced to reconcile your intrinsic morals and solidarity with your own actions, which due to the advanced form of indoctrination present in israel, leads rarely to rejection of the state project. Most people are able to use the tools provided to them to bend their morality, and accept the state's motivations fully as their own.
