Exactly. One of the basic tenets of fascism is the establishment of an official language.

178 countries have an official language(s) including European, African, North and South American, and Asian nations. I did not realise they were all fascist!

"One of the basic tenets of facism..." It's dangerous territory to venture into, unless your goal is to violate the human rights of others.

I did not realise 178 countries were violating human rights and on the slippery slope to fascism

Canada has two official languages.

Last I checked Canada wasn’t fascist.

Yes, 2. As in, not 1.

Hope this helps.

Is Denmark a fascist country? It only has one official language.

What about the Dominican Republic? Or Sweden?

I swear, none of you can read- what did my comment say, exactly?

"ONE of the basic tenets of fascism..." One. Along with Powerful and continuing nationalism. Disdain for human rights. Identification of enemies as a unifying cause. Military supremacy. Rampant seismic. Controlled mass media. Obsession with national security. Religion and government laced together. Corporate power protected. Labor power suppressed. Disdain for intellectuals and the arts. Obsession with crime and punishment. Rampant cronyism and corruption. Fraudulent elections.

Of the semi-socialist countries any of you have listed, do any of these descriptions apply to them?

Maybe a more appropriate question- name a country that is embracing all of these concepts.
