Under fascism every centrist will loyally enforce fascism, that is why it destroys a society and why the long history of centrists shouting down leftists trying to raise the alarm about a descent into fascism is so ironic.

These people never realize the vile they spit at progressives for violating established rules and norms is the same vile they will deploy on innocent people under fascism because “well that is the way things are now and I am going to live my life, now get in line and follow the new rules!”.

It is now a serious question how to deradicalize essentially the entire population of Israel away from genocide, and since neoliberalism is ideologically bankrupt there really isn’t much of anywhere to even start (I say this as a USian who very much implicates my country in this, only verrry low horses here)…

…which is what people really mean when they say neoliberalism and capitalism inveitably attempt to set the stage for fascism. Once the stage is set and the transition complete it is far to dangerous for the average individual to resist and limit the machinery of violence they are now part and parcel of… and most centrists then have lost the language to even think in those terms anyways. Going back is much much harder.

Once you shout down leftists and systematically disempower them for advocating for treating oppressed people like human beings and “compromise” with fascists who will never settle for anything less than fascism, you have not simply destroyed a societal guardrail, you have destroyed that society’s capacity to even understand there is a cliff or what it feels like to fall off it.
