@todymotmot I think you perhaps misread what I posted. Leftists aren't the ones letting the fascists in -- the "centrists" are the ones doing that. Democrats, Labour, Liberals... they've all shifted rightward over the years (as great folks like @dedicto have highlighted well) yet are outraged that leftists don't vote for them. Then they use blackmail: "Sure, we will continue climate collapse, genocide, authoritarianism, and funneling of wealth from poor to rich, but we're not fascists so either choose this evil or get the other one." They keep doing the same things over and over and losing spectacularly, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. All because they're addicted to capitalism.
