The fascist part is: Ohh humans are the problem Okay, which humans? Who decides who gets what? Who lives and who dies? Is there any consideration for the power dynamics in our society (spoiler, no there is not)

That's the part that always gets me. When I hear that argument it usually goes like this:

"There's too many humans, we're killing our planet :("

"Yeah good thing you're not one of those! Oh wait you are so...Okay, are you gonna be first in line to sacrifice yourself for the alleged Greater Good or. . .?"

". . ."

". . .well?"
