    I seem to recall that the most famous time fascists came to power in a major nation the liberals were very much not on their side, but sure the largest war in human history just didn’t happen. Got it.

        Socialists were douchebags to the liberals because they didn’t take the threat of fascism seriously while the liberals faded into irrelevance and had no other option than to try team up with the fascists to try to convince them to be less fascist. It didn’t go so hot, and the socialists ended up in concentration camps. How’s that? We don’t have to worry about that so much here, because their are no socialists relevant enough to matter in national politics.

          You can fuck ALL the way off with that bullshit. The liberals won the fucking i-voted then handed the power over to Hitler. Because liberals will always side with fascists over transformative change in society. We already saw what the Dems did faced with the mildest sucdem reformism. They fucking squashed it and doubled down on the most rightwing operatives in their party. If there were socialists relevant in national politics, they would do a Hindenburg faster than you can say surprised Pikachu.
