No. That’s quite identical to saying “black rights movements created the KKK”. Fascists will fash no matter what the progressive people do. The way to stop fascism from rising isn’t concessions in policy, it’s a total cancel of their presence in media and public spaces, by whatever means necessary.

I never said concessions in policy, I said that when you demonize people, you create an other side, people naturally form groups, now the other side is larger. Its like how anti vaxxers became a thing because we all joked about how they were dumb animals instead of ignoring them back in the early 2000's. Back then anti vaxxing was truly just a meme that only a few people did, but we pointed and laughed, which created a platform for stupid people, and they used it to recruit more.

I can damn right do it if they are. You can’t tolerate racism and homophobia just because you don’t wanna annoy the intolerants.

You're ignoring the entire rest of my argument so I cant really respond.

Maybe, hear me out, maybe, if we didn’t want fascists to start a civil war, we shouldn’t have allowed them on TV from the start, radicalizing people against queer and women’s rights, we shouldn’t have allowed them to take control of social media, and we shouldn’t have allowed them to take control of institutions like the supreme court. That’s how you avoid fascism.

100% agree, we shouldn't have given hatred a platform, but how did they get it that platform? Was it maybe early 2010s cancel culture? Again id advise you to look into trevors axiom, humans are simple and easily manipulated, attacking a thing creates a platform for people to recruit from.
