Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not a native speaker but that's a weird phrasing. For me it implies (or rather implicates) that all fascists ended because to end is a very strong verb semantically when applied to humans. And honestly, I wouldn't use it at all.

I meant in the original post haha. Since their comment was that fascism didn't end in 1945. If the post had said "winning against fascists", it would make more logical sense

In internet slang the /s means they were making a sarcastic statement, so they were being sarcastic when they said "Yeah fascism really ended in 1945 /s".

Yes I know. I was referring to the answer:

Replace the word with "fascists" and it makes so much more logical sense. And this is why wording matters

Which I interpreted as ... well you know. I'm not going to perpetuate this argument.
