Poe doesn't know or care why fascism returned, he just knows he's going to fight against it.
The hot take internet culture rejected the movie simply because people don't have the capability of understanding the layers and interpreting anything. It's a shame really it's the most interesting of all the Star Wars movies (though not the best, the editing was janky as hell). But people are more interested in consuming nitpicky memes about Star Wars than watching an actual Star Wars movie.
But it's a movie that provided petty nitpicky assholes on the internet many hours of entertainment repeating the same false memes that only indicate that they didn't actually watch the movie. You got what you wanted, so you should appreciate JJ Abrams for satisfying your cynical and petty nature with all the negative memes you're still repeating over four years later.
I'll just be over here enjoying a Star Wars movie that has layers about the relationship between our connection to our ancestors and fascist movements, the grieving process, and still isn't so overly serious to not have a layer with the Emperor blasting lightning bolts at X-Wings.
Enjoy your memes!
