Hence the vegetables...or maybe the return of Eggboy.

But seriously, all those who just let them speak their mind or form a party, or invite them onto their shows or choosing to up engagement are making a choice to legitimatimise them. Giving them a platform to "provide a different opinion" is a choice. Not pushing back on their bigotry is a choice.

Choosing to rip them to shreds is a different choice. Not allowing them to spread their bigotry is another choice. Keeping them visible but not engaging with them is a choice.

They wouldn't have the build-up to form a party, or if they did, it would be a miserable little party that would die soon afterwards. It doesn't have to be difficult to fight fascists. It primarily takes pushback, ridicule and deplatforming. Not pushing them underground. People need to be exposed to their bigotry too so they realise the path they shouldn't take - it's literally a major reason we study political history or history in general. As humans, one of the reasons we've been successful as a species is pattern recognition - it's what we do. We see similarities between times and feelings and movements. Hopefully so we can learn from them. Oftentimes we don't and those who know their history can just sit back and shake their heads.
