    It is frustrating that a person can be as willfully idiotic as they can and if they get taken for fools by the fascists, that the left is right there with a safety net preventing them from finding out after they fucked around. I think at some point you are enabling idiots to go on being idiots without consequences.

    Largely I agree, but at some point kindness in the face of hatred becomes its own kind of idiocy. You can’t be allies with someone who is ambivalent or worse about whether you live or die.
