Oh yeah for sure, fascism is not specifically a religious thing, reactionary ideology can easily form without religion, it's just unfortunate that religion offers a great justification for exclusionary rhetoric and persecution. Religion can exist without fascism and fascism can exist without religion, but they tend to get along.
I'm not talking about Fascism. There were several European countries that adopted Fascism with mixed results.
Only the Nazi party murdered eleven million Jews and several million other "weaker races". They explicitly referred to Darwinism as their justification.
