You're doing yourself a disservice if you equate fascism with cosmic horror, I think. It romanticizes human evil and narrows the scope of the unknown to things we've already done to each other. If you want to address both those subjects at the same time, maybe write about a fascist state that leverages fear of the cosmic and projects human wickedness onto them ("they want to drive us mad, eat our children, enslave our whole world!") when in fact they really are just incomprehensible. Basically an Indiana Jones story but more firmly in the realm of horror.

Or go for pitch black comedy and have an Eichmann-esque character who encounters the Great Old Ones and is completely unphased because he doesn't have the imagination or the moral capacity to understand why they're horrifying.
