Both Communism and Fascism were forms of sacralization of politics that rejected coexistence with other political ideologies and movements

And that's why we need to ban TikTok, shut down the Confuscious Centers, raid the consulats, embargo and blockage whole island nations, and launch a Forever War to eradicate them from the face of the earth.

It's the only way to protect our sacred democracy from the hideous evil of the foreign menace.

Ah yes, the Anabaptist dictators. I remember them quite well.

utopian dictatorships of both the sixteenth-century Anabaptists and the twentieth-century Maoists

God I fucking hate anti-communist propaganda, Marxism isn't utopian you fucking liberal idiots.

Also, this part is just bonkers:

hallmarks of the pathological dualisms described by Sacks and Murawiec: the binary *us versus them'" framework, the justification of mass violence against all "enemies,"' the Gnostic knowledge of an elite vanguard and the altruistic evil of mass killing in defense of an imagined utopia-to-be

Liberals literally do this towards leftists, especially if they're from colonized or global south countries, or just in general "enemies" of US imperialism. Constantly demonizing, justifying genocide with a colonialist attitude to the populations of these countries. And they do it with a insistence that they're better than everyone else because they're Westerners, and that Western nations are the only perfectly free nations on earth.
