I've never seen a rational discussion regarding what this word even means in real terms. As a matter of political ideology, I don't know how you could distinguish it from fascist and have the term mean anything. It seems here to be little more than a semi-polite euphemism for "someone with a belief system that's really similar to that one that turned up in the early part of the 20th century, but I don't want to say the word."
It would have been interesting to see the distribution of votes in this poll with the removal of "corporatist" while leaving "fascist" there.
