They’re acknowledging now that the people who called Trump a “fascist” were right. But somehow we’re still not to be trusted.

For goodness’ sake, Democrats: Bill Kristol is in favor of ICE abolition. Can you really not get there?

Call them the Cassandras: the people—mostly not white and male—who smelled the fascism all over Trump from jump street. Why were they “alarmists,” and how did “anti-alarmism” become cool?

The greatest liberal philosopher of the twentieth century guided his creed toward neutrality. In the age of Trump, we can no longer afford that.

For the left to win, it must blame fascism on the actual fascists.
