Right? I keep hearing, "They're not fascists/Nazis [yet] because they haven't done [blank]." Are they waiting for when people are getting loaded into ovens? I feel like that's well past the point of no return.

Yep! Thats the idea!

Are you? Are the people saying that in the room with us now?

? Are you just stupid? Do you genuinely not believe that any centrists think this way? You would be so confidently wrong to the point where you no longer get to have a valid opinion on any thing, because I would have to double check every claim you ever make, that's how stupid that claim would make you.

This whole exchange:

Everyone is saying it all the time!

No they're not.

I hear this all the time.

No you don't.

Well, some people, somewhere are saying it, I'm certain they are.

I just want to clarify.

You think that, when someone accuses the current administration of being Nazis, there AREN'T a bunch of self-described "centrists" that defend the Nazis and say that the left is overreacting?

To clarify, THAT is what is being talked about. Is THAT what you think isn't happening?

Looks like.

Where exactly are you hearing this and from who? I can't think of a single instance IRL.
