"This is not a political #philosophy. This is a one-way ratchet. And the ratchet has a name. It is what #authoritarian movements have always required from their apologist class, in every country where they have come to power: a class of articulate people who concede every factual point about the authoritarian, who acknowledge his crimes, who profess discomfort w/ his methods, & who continue to vote for him anyway because the alternative is the left."
