"When major conservative voices minimize Fuentes’ disgusting ideology, they shift the boundary of what counts as acceptable. They turn Holocaust denial into a topic of conversation instead of a red line that must never be crossed. They turn antisemitism and white supremacy into a matter of opinion instead of a proven existential threat."

"The thing that particularly worries me, and I follow this very closely, and perhaps it’s partly because of my family background, but - my history of my family is refugees from Hitler - there seems a remarkable amount, I mean, astounding amount of genuine, clear fascism, even Nazism, circulating around on the extreme right."
