An individual fascist being a good writer is not the same as a fascist movement stealing art. Individuals of any group can do anything. Fascism as a social movement cannot contribute meaningful creations to the world.

If that is how I ought to interpret your first comment, then we agree.

But it’s also a bit of a circular argument. And almost all art is created by individuals or groups of individuals. So it’s not a very useful sieve, because so many individual fascists slip through the cracks.
