I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.
Oh I am, but if I had to pick just one to focus on, I’d rather focus on the Republicans.
Seems pretty roundabout to do it the other way. If you had to pick just one party to focus your effort to stopping, why go for diet fascists when you can attack fascism prime?
Not… the Republicans. Ok.
Can you not read? The 16th word is literally Republican

I’m fine with attacking the literal fascists than just the sycophants, so I suppose we can split up the work.
If you’re are not including democrats in your equation of fascists you are doing nothing but protect the roots
