Morphology

hetero-fascism = fascism (semi-transparent) = hetero + fascism

The prefix 'hetero-' indicates 'different' or 'other', but the specific ideological meaning requires contextual understanding.

Etymology

The word hetero-fascism combines hetero- ('other' or 'heterosexual') and fascism ('a strict, oppressive rule'). So, hetero-fascism is an attitude or system that pushes heterosexual dominance and treats LGBTQ+ people unfairly.
