Fascism is wrong because it is suicidal. That is the most succinct way I can put it.
It revels in the idea of 'heroic' death and promotes worldviews (historical idealism, social Darwinism) that are fundamentally harmful. They worship the past but don't understand it or the past's mistakes, and uses artificial constructs like nationalism to promote genocide. Its rejection of democracy results in totalitarianism, and the extraneous 'other' starts appearing everywhere, leading to fear and repression. It's economic system, while at first glance social democratic, is built on a system of looting and plundering others that inevitably collapses in the long term. Ordinary people may support fascism, but fascists themselves are generally cowards and bullies. Overall, it's a ramshackle mess of ideology that always collapses and destroys itself.

These are the ruins that fascism creates in just a few years. You know why Rotterdam is now a liberal-looking city with big glass skyscrapers? Because fascists destroyed it, just like everything they think they love. So much for tradition.
