And if he's just a fascist I don't think he need to take his justifications seriously by giving him a newly named ideology.

Giving an important branch of fascist ideas a name doesn't "take his justifications seriously" in any sense of condoning them. It's also not newly named, but been discussed in academic studies of far right tendencies for decades, at least since the 60s. It's a useful category for describing a set of ideas which have substantial influence.

But I've never met one to my knowledge, not even online.

There are probably lots of ideologies you don't hear about all the time. Instead of just rejecting their existence with a total lack of curiosity you could instead read about them. At least start with the Wikipedia page...
