I think there should be a place at the table for every stripe of opinion, plenty of govt's around the world have coalitions with unashamed or crypto-fascists forming a minority partner. It should be that way, minority views should have representation.
The Greens, a very junior partner in partnership with the Social Democrats in Germany at the turn of the millennium had the country ban nuclear power and ramped up production and deployment of wind turbines and start up a mass of solar and other renewable industries... Not bad.
The turbines are a damned impressive sight as you travel through the country as well... Poetic, even.
Hey, if we hate the ultra-right, we have to start boycotting Israel.
