you are correct they would use our behavior as an excuse to do some fascism
but the problem with that assertion is that "our behavior" could be something unrelated, or even made up
it's not like what's holding back the fascists from fascism is our good behavior
we should simply do what is right, period
and all the contrived, crocodile tears howling about that from fascists should not mean one single thing to you. nothing they say has any validity, seriousness, or attempt at fairness. it's just a game to them. if any one outside their ignorant indecent base falls for their bs complaints, that's just pure gravy. don't fall for it
only one side of this conflict actually cares about what is right and being fair
