Unironically, there are actual Chinese Nationalist with views even more extreme than the CCP. Like they are anti-CCP, but not in the egalitarian way, but in the "CCP lets in too many 'African Migrants', too many people are doing interracial marriages, eventually these [slur-word] are gonna take over China, we need to get rid of them" type of way. I know someone who actually think this way, its my older brother (I bet he's in some weird chat groups or something).
(For context: There are migrant workers that are from Africa in Guangdong Province, for example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africans_in_Guangzhou)
Nationalists are crazy everywhere you go.
Edit: And funny thing is, he's not even a PRC Citizen anymore. Insane, right?
Yeah that's not surprising. If everything goes the worst it can for me personally as an American and the best it can for China, that faction will likely spend several decades as a "too toxic to touch" camp. Similar to how America had groups like the silver shirts and the German American Bund right up until 1941, then a solid generation in which the archetypal "evil loser" in the public consciousness was a neo nazi.
My main attempt in my comment was to imagine what the Chinese losers spoofing off American fascism would be like a la neo nazis as American losers spoofing off german fascism.
