So how is DHH a fascist? Or is this just the in vogue ad hominem attack right now?

Yeah, I don't really think it's addressed much in this article, but it's fairly clear from his posts. There is a thread here discussing it[0].

Essentially, he is posting articles[1] saying he wants fewer non-white people in London.[2].

I was not aware of his opinions till yesterday, but I am still not sure how that is fascist, it might be something else but not fascist?

I think the point is that was in vogue 5-10 years ago but now people are treating it as background noise due to overuse.

Which sucks because there is real fascism in some parts of society. But DHH? I have no idea.

That is not true, the phrase is non-native brits, and that is very different to what you wrote.

Agreed, but being a conservative or right wing person does not equal being a fascist. We should be reserving those words to the people that really deserve them, otherwise the word loses the meaning.
