Maybe they are seeing a disconnect from reality, and are seeing that like Xinjiang, Hongkong, Ukraine, and now Palestine, the fire will come dancing to their own house if they do not stop supporting the "rules based international" narrative?

Can't be first time for you. Surely you've met people who are enthuastic about Roman Empire for example?

these people invariably fall on the fascist end of the political spectrum

Have you actually met these people in real life?

I somehow doubt it... Being enthuastic about Roman history is just really common. Thinking they're all fascists is peak Lemmy lol.
