Bigotry is not the same as fascism. Fascists want to control society, and are willing to lie about their motives in order to gain that control.

It's arguable that they are victims, but they have chosen to blame the wrong people and to ruthlessly act against the people they are blaming.

They are in many ways a tool of the plutonomy -- they do distract us from the systemic problem of capitalism, but they're no less a real problem themselves.
