Lmao the anti-fascist label does not have room in it to tolerate material support of genocide, or to justify that tolerance because you need to include those people who support it to serve your other goals.
There will be material support of Israel’s genocide no matter what US voters do. All US voters have control over in 2024 is how many people are affected by Israel’s genocide. Since that metric is what US voters have control over, choices that impact that metric are what distinguishes anti-fascists from fascists.
You’re free to call it an ‘anti-maga-fascist’ coalition if you want. That seems less likely to confuse people who would like to actually act against fascism in all its forms and features, not just the ones that are most immediate to yourself.
Anti-fascism is the correct term for opposing the MAGA movement as the MAGA movement is a fascist movement. Accelerationism supports fascist movements though deliberate inaction and promoting inaction. Again accelerationism is not anti-fascism.
Does your coalition include Biden? Does it include democratic politicians that are obstructing justice against Israeli war crimes?
Do you have any justification for Biden to not be more forcefully condemning Israeli fascism other than ‘he needs the votes of people who support Israeli fascism’?
Hate to break it to you, bud, but if the extent of your anti-fascist organizing is signing onto the democratic voting rolls then you’re not an anti-fascist revolutionary, you’re just a anti-republican liberal. Which isn’t the worst thing you can be! No shame in shitting on republicans, they’re literal neo-nazis. But a part of being an anti-fascist is opposing all fascism, not just the fascism that’s most immediate to you.

The goal of the current pro-democracy coalition in the US is to get Biden elected to prevent a christo-fascist dictatorship. This christo-fascist dictatorship will perform it’s own genocides and ethnic cleansings at home and support genocides and ethnic cleansings abroad. This pro-democracy coalition is anti-fascist as it opposes the MAGA movement, who are attempting the christo-fascist takeover. Biden being reelected gives us four years to promote socialist and progressive ideas. Ideally we will have a socialist candidate running as a Democrat in the general election in 2028. But to even have a 2028 election our democracy has to survive the 2024 election.

I have nothing to do with what we are discussing.
