Eh, no. Not really. You could be just against people who are actively against fascism. You don't need an opinion on it. You should have an opinion on it, but it isn't required.

For the abortion example, letting people have a choice is within the range of possibility for anti-anti-abortion. The same here. The problem is Fascists don't want to let people have a choice, so you're fucked up you allow them to make the decisions.

No, letting people have a choice is pro-choice, the opposite of anti-abortion.

I was speaking semantically, not about the movement. Anti-anti-abortion could be pro-choice or pro-abortion (again, semantically).

As far as the movements go, the "pro-life" movement isn't pro-life or anti-abortion, it's anti-choice. Semantics is important, and they do not necessarily agree with the typical word's meaning that are used.
