While I agree with your point about productive messaging, maybe accusing people who have had fascism shoved down their throats of being "okay with fascism" isn't the most productive approach either. There's a bit of pot and kettle going on here.
It would be nice if everyone was always level-headed and emotionally mature enough to maximize every opportunity for positive change.
But over here in reality, the exact people that created this mess, with the explicit and overt intention of hurting others, are now reaping what they've sown. It's inevitable that's some people are going to experience some schadenfreude.
If you'd like others to be all sunshine and rainbows perhaps pump the brakes on the judgment and lead by example.
