Oh yes, blame the rise of fascism on the people whose sole goal it is to stop fascism. Real genius here.
If someone punches you and says shut up or Im gonna punch you even harder, the correct response is not to shut up.
He is not blaming the left.
That's not the left
Doesnt really matter who exactly is meant. They are saying theres a group of people who 'pushed' the right to extremism. Thats just bullshit. This was the goal from the start and its noone but them pushing it with lies and hate.
Conservatives are not predisposed to end as extremists.
Who is them for you? Right extremists?
They sure as hell always end up in the extremes no matter where they pretend to begin.
Not all conservatives are extremists, but those who are were very much predisposed imo. And even if none of them were, they dont end up extremists by being pushed by the left. Sure some of them might use that as an excuse or even believe it themselves.

OP is arguing that the billionaires are doing the pushing.
That's like saying Jews pushed Nazis to commit the Holocaust, or Palestinians pushed Israel to commit the Gaza genocide (Americans do say that...).
Listen to yourself.
Not at all. Please check the other reply.
