A very incomplete list of things we wouldn't have done if we waited for the normies to care:

- abolish slavery
- child labor laws
- votes for women
- social security
- fdic
- welfare
- medicare
- medicaid
- desegregation
- women's sports
"normies do not care about this thing and so it is no use raising a stink" is imho just an excuse for not doing politics, which is the job of making normies care about something
These people railing against ideological purity are hoping you forget about the 2024 and 2016 elections. Even if we accept that their goal truly is to defeat fascism, why should we listen to their political "wisdom" when they advocate for the approach that most effectively advances fascism?
Folks demanding political / ideological purity fail to see that this is no longer a movement belonging to the left / liberals. This is an opposition against fascism. By definition it must be big tent. Failure to grasp this: see divided oppositions in Eastern Europe as your failed examples.
If your tent is big enough for a few fascists, your tent is too big.

Today's Amazon outage should be a wakeup call.

We've put too many internet eggs into a single basket.
Your favorite thing is down because DynamoDB at Amazon's AWS US-EAST-1 Regionwoke up with Main Character Syndrome.

This is the default /legacy backbone for a ton of things.

Including Amazon's own stuff.

Massive outages.

Here's what's going on & what we know 1/

"Now is not the time to fight for [blank] rights"

If you've allowed yourself to believe its okay to sacrifice ANY particular group of people, then the fascists have already won.

If nothing is more important than defeating fascism then you have to actually reject fascist beliefs, even fascism lite.

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.

But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.
They don't care about what happens to society, they just want the brutalization
"Weapons" is pretty good.

the idea of a "purity test" for politicians is intrinsically ridiculous. there is no "purity", there is compatibility with my beliefs and values and I'm willing to compromise on a lot of those values for a strategic win, but insisting that we accept someone fundamentally incompatible makes it a loss
