    I was about to agree with you but then I reread the statement you responded to and it’s:

    Yeah fascism really ended in 1945 /s

    So your suggestion is to put it:

    fascists really ended in 1945

    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.

        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.

      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
