Yes, just like if an American Democrat or Republican did it…the action itself is fascist.

I think you are confused about fascism vs authoritarianism.

Both communists and fascists can be authoritarian but they are ideologically opposed to each other by definition.

Taking a sign is not what the term fascism means.

I’m not making any such distinction. I am saying, and have been saying, very clearly, and I’ll repeat it again, removing/destroying political signs is a fascist act, regardless of what the political alignment of the person doing it holds.

Infringing I’m political speech is fascist. Period.
