Broken political systems enable fascism. The lie that the US has a strong constitution and political system has been revealed.
In the US you get 1/3 of the electorate and ypu get everything. In the US you appoint political judges from 2 parties and control everything. In the US every election is between 2 parties, there is no other option. In the US the 2 parties gerrymander constituencies to give themselves perpetual power. In the US small states have disproportionate power in the senate and the presidency. In the US the president can make laws on a whim.
Centerists aren't the problem. The entire US system is the problem. And they have gaslit you to believe that the only option is to play the game their way and pick the lesser evil. The actual only solution is to tear the whole lot down and start again. Reform would be ideal, but revolution may by the only realistic way of doing it the way things are going.
The opposition blaming each other for the fascists behaviour is part of how fascists get away with it.
