Yes the media did it, then we did it online everywhere, in our social circles, on facebook, endlessly. And while i recognize that its the media fault, i can also accept the role i played in it as a stupid teenager participating in it within my own circles.

Your second argument is just in such bad faith, i feel like I'm arguing with an angsty teen. I never said we give into what they want and let them run wild. I said we need to understand them and knock off the constant demonization or all you're going to do is bolster their numbers, fight them without the endless ad hominem, argue against the idea and not the individual, stop labeling everyone you don't like a facist, because when you do that you're essentially just recruiting for actual facists by pushing more and more moderate people to them. I'm fairly certain at this point you still wont understand what I'm saying and you will come up with some antagonizing catch phrase in response so I'm done here, id hope you spend some time thinking on this, but it sounds like youve made up your mind.

THEY ARE LITERALLY FASCISTS. IT'S NOT HYPERBOLE. THEY WAVE NAZI FLAGS.

Jesus christ you milquetoast fuck, wake up and smell the crisis.

At some point, it's willful. I think you're past that point, now. Next step is appeasement, then open collaboration. You'd better pray your Quisling ass gets saved by us on the left using "extremist rhetoric".
