An American fascist ideology around this period is probably going to reflect what the mass membership of the 1920s KKK period held.
Obviously racist (particularly anti-African), antisemitic, and - in terms of what drove the northern mass membership of the KKK - anti-Catholic. American inter-war fascism was basically the return of Know Nothing nativism in bedsheets.
Inter-war period 'fascisms' took on a few forms about who the 'other' was. In Scotland more people heard Moseley rant against the Jews in Blackpool than in his speaking tour than in all the venues of Scotland. Scotland's interwar 'fascistic' outburst was anti-Catholicism, particularly Irish Catholicism. Ironically Irish immigration to Scotland had become a dribble by this period, and even the Tory Scottish Secretary - who was an Orangeman - repudiated the claims of those arguing on anti-Irish Catholic platforms.
It was all a bit of a weird period where, unfortunately, some of these 20th century Know Nothings won power.
