Elitism vs Fascism

Terms like "elitist" and "fascist" get thrown around a lot. Because of that they are often just dismissed when used.

Basically the difference is that a fascist puts into motion and takes control against the will of those it affects. An elistist just talks about doing it because they know best. Here is Wikipedia.

• Fascism is a political philosophy, that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition. --- Does Hugo Chavez or the “Fairness Doctrine” come to mind?
• Elitism is the belief or attitude that a select group of people with outstanding personal abilities, intellect, wealth, specialized training or experience, or other distinctive attributes —are most likely to be constructive to society as a whole; or whose extraordinary skills, abilities or wisdom render them especially fit to govern. ---Does anti-American fit? The American ideal is "of the people, by the people, for the people"...
• Totalitarian is a person that believes that the state or leader should regulate nearly every aspect of public and private life.
