"This is the way we've always done it" doesn't discount a practice from being fascist, you stupid fascist. If you actually knew what fascism was, you'd be able to make an argument why it isn't that isn't trivial to dismiss as a fallacy.

Appealing to history or authority isn't a real argument, its a crutch for the intellectually lazy who can't make a real argument. Its also hilarious given the various explicitly authoritarian/borderline fascistic beliefs you profess.
