      Shutting down a nontheoretical fascist breeding ground VS. a theoretical slide to 1984.

      Isn’t this the lesser evilism I was fed for the last year? Isn’t this the trolley problem? This should be easy for the American left to get behind.

      Instead its “okay a little fascism is okay, as a treat” and its odd to me.

          Sorry, let me be clear. I was pointing out how if one’s strategy is to let fascist breeding grounds sit unmolested, one will need a lot more compensation than hypothetical slippery slopes. As stated, the trade off is hardly worth it.

          It’s the same style of rationale for why many leftists didn’t vote Harris.
