i need y'all to understand that the moderate who tells you that you can't protect marginalized people from fascists because it'll paint progressives as dangerous criminals is just as vital a component of fascism as the goon actively rounding up those marginalized people.

fascism's true believers are *very* few in number. the bulk of fascism's power comes from treacherous moderates who will tell you that, yes, fascism is bad - but resistance is worse.

@fuckfetish i disagree. Fascism is often carried by a sizeable portion of the population.

@EinsPossum Sure, a fair amount of the population might own MAGA hats or think Hitler's a very good speaker or whatever the fuck else, but how many of those people are actually willing to *enact* fascism? There's a reason that right wingers put so much time and money into obfuscating their cruelty. Only a very small portion of the population actually knows fascism's true face and supports it. The rest are in denial to some extent or another.

@fuckfetish you are wrong about this, at least if talking about Nazi Germany, your narrative is ahistorical. A large amount of Germans did actively support national-socialism. The persecution of jews at the scale that happened wouldnt have been logistically possible without active supporters everywhere.

@EinsPossum @fuckfetish Will we leave out the Jews for supporting Hitler?
