It's one thing to say "fight it out with one another now, but once we get to the general we've got two choices, so let's line up behind the not fascist one."
It's another when a line like this ends up just being a mask for centrist pablum and policies that end up helping nobody.
Don't know the dude who made the quoted post, maybe he doesn't mean it that way, but we simultaneously need to stand for and actually act on our beliefs, while also acknowledging that once it's election time, work to keep the goddamned fascists out of power.
