    I understand the reluctance to call them fascists, and you are correct that liberal is a disgusting sort of political position on its own. But, and I know that you tried to preempt this, they are supporting a genocide.

    I know that liberal capitalism already imposes barbaric conditions and mass murder on the world, but what is happening in Gaza is different. It's a concentration camp, filled with children, it is being relentlessly bombed. While this happens so much video footage of the horrors is coming out on the internet, that it may as well be happening in my town, may as well be happening in Dagwood's town, in terms of visibility.

    It can't be denied, there is no plausible deniability for people supporting Biden at this point. Liberal leaders have always committed atrocities just like fascist leaders. But the rank and file members of liberal parties have always been able to comfort themselves with the illusion that they are morally upright, with Gaza they have abandoned this. They demand that we support, as they do, the genocide that we all see unfolding with our own two eyes.

    And yes I did say Nazi and not simply fascist. Nazi calls to mind the death camps that these people have shown themselves to be okay with in a way that fascist doesn't.

    People like this are liberals, you're not wrong, but there's a reason that we say scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds. People like Dagwood are thoroughly scratched.
