    You want socialists to go full Richard Spencer to not scare the moderate nazis instead of uuhhhh delivering results which help the working class?

    I want you to understand something that fundamentally separates socialism from bog-standard reactionary politics of everyone from unironic fascists to your ordinary centrist neolib: fascists do not have a coherent ideology or any meaningful results to strive towards; all they have is the maintenance of the status quo, or a revanchist attitiude towards the past when they were in charge and things were great. This is why they have to rely on superficial aesthetics like wearing a nice suit and looking smug and clever for the cameras instead of actually doing anything beyond optics and intimidatory rhetoric.

    Rebranding, etc has been and always will be a complete failure as it presents inherent contradictions. Communists do not hide their ambitions or mask their goals behind presentability so as to not scare :porky-happy: too much.

    In short, read theory, punch nazis on sight and anyone who thinks you should be nice to them
