I doubt that these clowns are even living in those countries. They're probably living somewhere in the West and have contracted the USAIDS mind virus from the locals, hence this open display of terminal symptoms online.
To the first brown clown: The Islamic Republic of Iran almost went to war with the Islamic Emirate (Afghanistan) in the 1990s. Iran appears to have even helped the US against Afghanistan during the early stages of the American occupation. The notion that animosity between some Iranians and some Afghans is somehow new is misinformation and long predates 2016. I can just as easily point to the Tehran Eight and Hezb-e-Wahdat as examples of good relations between Iran and Afghanistan throughout the past few decades.
To the second brown clown: Whatever the military rulers are, they have nothing to do with Fascism, nor did they destroy Myanmar. Actually, they've governed it almost uninterrupted since 1962. Thus, wouldn't they have destroyed Myanmar decades ago if they were so ruinous? Military rule goes back to the Buddhist-Marxist rule of General Ne Win (r. 1962-1988). After the famous 8888 Uprising of August 8, 1988, political power shifted from Leftist military officers to the more Rightist military officers of the SLORC, but these people remained closer to Buddhism than to any other belief system. In other words, Marxism got axed and Buddhism survived as the sole belief system, and Fascism is nowhere to be seen. The closest thing to the Far-Right are the fringe 'nationalist monks', but the government isn't particularly friendly to them, since they do not always share the same agenda.
As for relevant political parties, the NUP, descended from the Ne Win regime, while more Right-Wing these days, isn't even supportive of the government. That just leaves the main political party, that created by elements of the junta, the USDP, but they also lack Fascist characteristics, such as, for instance, in being too supportive of the free market. The bitter irony here is that the Left-liberal Aung San - who the West idolized, and whose father was a Marxist - and her NLD party were actually more anti-free market than the military rulers during the period in the 2010s in which the military ceded most political power to them. In an economic sense, the NLD was actually closer to Fascism than the junta and the USDP. Aung San did not want international corporations in Myanmar that did not engage only in State-sanctioned economic activity. If we agree that you can come in to manufacture, say, cars, manufacturing anything else would be breaking the deal, because that is not what we agreed upon.
There are other political parties, but they are all more fringe and less relevant than these three: he is probably thinking about the aforementioned three only, none of which are Fascist.
I also doubt his claim about the junta's unpopularity: it is unpopular among ethnic minorities living in the border regions. Practically every Burmese insurgent group has some sort of ethnic minority character. Many of them have ethnicities in their titles. Chances are, he is of a non-Burman ethnic minority and simply knows the opinions of Burmese living in the West, who would also be disproportionately non-Burmans. The true lesson of Myanmar is the failure of multiculturalism even among people who are highly similar and has nothing to do with an imagined Fascism.
