The SGI is fascist.

Here is a quote from its president, Daisaku Ikeda, clarifying his perspective and goals with regard to fascism:

"To tell the truth, fascism is my real ideal." - Daisaku Ikeda, 61st Executives Meeting, June 15, 1972 http://markrogow.blogspot.com/2014/02/daisaku-ikedas-true-thoughts.html

Soka Gakkai has, together with its international offshoot Soka Gakkai International (SGI) been described as "the world's largest Buddhist lay group and America's most diverse". While the organization has received recognition for its peace activism, it has also been characterized as being "quasi-fascist", "fascist", "militant", "overzealous", "manipulationist" and "authoritarian", especially in the first few decades following World War II.

Further expansion of the movement was led by its third president Daisaku Ikeda, who planted the seed for the organization's international expansion in 1960. While Ikeda has been remarkably successful in moving the group towards mainstream acceptance in some areas, the organization is still widely viewed with suspicion in Japan and grapples with a reputation of being a "brainwashing cult", as well as a cult of personality centered around Ikeda. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soka_Gakkai
