Even if you lack empathy and morality like this person, from a selfish standpoint you do realize that the Fascists don't stop at one group, right?
After trans people, immigrants, women, gays, non-Christians, non-whites, are all on the chopping block. (In fact, they already are)...

maybe because defending everything about a super small minority of the population is not worth losing to fascists

There was a time in my life when I was so eager to understand "legitimate concerns" and "both sides" every issue until we found middle ground. And now I live in a nation that has conceded ground to fascism for the last 2 decades or so, and folks, I don't much like it.

Racism becomes individualised and extreme and strongly denounced by those then claiming to not be racist
Meanwhile, "polite" racism gets mainstreamed as "legitimate concerns" held by "the people" to which the elite has no choice but address

The phrase "legitimate concerns" have been a key element in the mainstreaming of far-right politics and the framing by Mahmood makes it particularly clear
On the one hand, she can denounce the illiberal articulation of racism while on the other she euphemises and mainstreams its liberal form

They haven't faced any force of law whatsoever, let alone the full force. These are hollow words. We have far right paramilitaries on the streets and nobody will say boo to them.
We know where this ends. This ends with them in real uniforms brandishing real guns.
