Trying to stop a fascist from taking power is not evil.
It is, however, more than many self-described "antifa" are willing to do.

MODERATORS
The worst part is those same "moderates" love to shit on Nazis, then turn around and say we can't protest funding a genocide because there could be more genocide...
Like, they hate Nazis, but not for the right reasons, they might not even be thinking on a deeper level than "they're not us".
There's no level of genocide that's acceptable. Even with the Nazis, there were people arguing for worse, that obviously doesn't make what happened better cuz it could have been worse. In present day Bibi is facing criticism from Israel's extremist right that he's not genociding enough, that doesn't magically make what they're currently doing ok.
It could be worse
Is literally true, no matter how bad something is, it can always be worse. How bad shit can be reaches all the way out to infinity, if "it could be worse" is used as a justification, then anything can be justified.
It's just not logical, but that's never stopped "moderates" before...
Ok, boomer
