This study seeks to problematize the elements of fascism considering the Brazilian political-social situation and its effects on education. Based on a bibliographical review, we start from the current political dramaturgy to discuss, on the one hand, the need for the permanent elaboration of the past as an urgent democratic task of the present as opposed, on the other hand, to the constant authoritarian elaboration of the present through production of subjectivities via fake news and other devices. In this scenario, the limits, and possibilities of still educating ourselves for democracy, for emancipation, in increasingly neo-fascist contexts associated with authoritarian neoliberalism policies are questioned. It appears that the notion of adaptation, among other elements of fascism, becomes a kind of political imperative and an end of culture and education, fostering the process of ultra-right tendencies that has emerged globally and with strength in recent years.
