90 per cent of people are anti-fascists. But some of the people who are motivated by anti-fascism aren’t much better than those they oppose. The mid-20th century saw a brutal struggle between fascism and communism that killed millions. Fortunately a third option - liberal, pluralistic democracy - resisted the lure of polarization and saved much of the world from a grim fate.
The choice wasn’t between extreme left and extreme right then and it isn’t now, no matter how much extremists on both sides want to present that false choice.
