MLK talked about “a coalition of conscience.” We can’t move forward if everything is an oppositional conversation. Allies aren’t necessarily people we agree with about everything. Defeating Trump isn’t Dem vs. Repub, left vs. right. It’s people of goodwill vs. a fascist threat.

People of goodwill, people of goodwill... Ah, that's a nice one. You can't see the beauty in both sides!

The point is that I do see the beauty in both sides. There are high minded conservative principles and high minded liberal principles. It should be a yin and a yang, not enemies pitted against each other. And fascism is their common enemy.

I'd like you to list off some of these "high-minded principles" in modern-day conservatism and tell me how they're in any way fundamentally distinguishable from the "high-minded principles" of fascism.

High minded conservative principles? What the hell are you smoking lately? You fell in line fast as fuck.
