A bundle of sticks held together by a cord. The word fascist came from this. In a fascist government, the sticks are the people held together by the cord, or leader.

Get the fascesmug. A bundle of sticks held together with string or a cord, can also be arrows. Used to represent power through unity and is used as a symbol in governance such as in the US House of Representatives chamber and the flag of the Italian Fascist movement.
It's origin is from Rome, where one of the two Consuls (Leaders of the Roman Republic) would hold the Fasces to represent that they are holding power, after a year long term it would be given to the other Consul.
The political ideology, Fascism gets its name from Fasces as Fascism worships the state though a collective effort.

Get the Fasc-tardmug. Short for fascist; in particular minor, not overtly political behaviour that exhibits fascist idealogical tendencies, e.g. the suppression of opposition through aggression, disdain for general human decency, scapegoating as a means of shoring up popular support, etc. (see also Deleuze and Guattari on "microfascisms")
Example 1
Gen Z Leftist 1: "Ugh, Kenny is the worst person to have class with. He just talks over everyone when he clearly doesn't understand Foucault's argument, and when you try to call him out he just derails the conversation and antagonizes you. The professor can barely reign him in."
Gen Z Leftist 2: "Dude's fasc af. Probably jerks off thinking about saving Western Civilization from liberal
example 2
Individual 1: "Hey, just out of curiosity, what did Henry Ford, Ezra Pound, and Charles Lindbergh think of Hitler and Mussolini in the years preceding the Second World War? Such great minds, they believed that all humans are deserving of freedom, right?"
Individual 2: "Bro, wtf no, they were literally all fasc. Like Suuuuper fasc. How did you not know that?"
