Trying to create an "ideal world" without God/religion in the 20th century, led to the worst mass killings the world has yet to see.
I suspect the current cult of "freedom" to worship the self only will, in time, lead to the wholesale destruction of our species.

Not at all GM. Can you be fascist banning guns? I Don't think so. The biggest most single outrage would be preventing people from worshipping a God. But I would stamp on any attempt to form a cult. Which all religions are. It's a tough call. Restricting a freedom to allow more freedom. But I'm not sure religion spells freedom. This is why we will never live in the ideal world. For every plus someone will find a minus.

If you hate fascists and want them gone you are then a fascist GM? If you hate war, cancer, cruelty, rudeness, bullying, pollution this makes you a fascist?

I was a gun owner for many years. Where now rural crime is high like car and house break ins, I handed them to over to the police. I couldn't deal with paperwork to sell them privately.
No religion does sound fantastic.
I don't like 'em GM. Very much an 'Ideal World' perhaps. A passive and peaceful Mankind is after all pie in the sky. Which why there are game hunters of course. lol.
