Spain isn't handling it particularly well, but no, nothing especialy fascist here.
No country in the whole world would let a big chunk of itself separate easily. Especially such an economically important chunk.
Plus it's not even clear whether a majority of Catalans want so separate since the people who oppose this don't bother to vote.
Plus the plans of the separatists are vague and dumb and would most likely **** over the whole region.
