Fascist? No.

There is certainly a popular reactionary swing away from social liberalism and towards national conservatism however.

Buddy, national conservatism is the core component of fascism in a declining capitalist country, and inevitable under “social” liberalism.

The core component of fascism is authoritarianism with totalitarian goals. Many nationalist movements throughout history have not been fascist in nature, and many non-fascists have embraced nationalist values without becoming fascists.

Also, claiming that a rise of fascism is inevitable under social liberalism is speculation at best.
