This one Dril tweet in December 2023 was a more accurate depiction of actual events than anything you’d have got off newsstands, from broadcast media or out of the mouths of politicians. It hasn’t got much better since.

Likewise the 'green terror' trope trotted out by the KMT and their supporters. (Well, I guess you guys are the experts in that stuff!)

No matter what you do, the far right will always want the next cruelty, and their torch-bearers in the press will attack you for not delivering it. All while priming voters to conceive of far right concerns as newly moderate.

Again, this has happened in every single place this has ever been tried.
You’ve driven away your traditional base, while sanitising the racism of the far right for low information voters, who now consider them more reasonable. You have moved the sensible middle position toward the far right — where you now stand, boxed in, by the ghouls you’ve just baptised as moderates. And the slide continues. Because you cannot placate these people. You cannot reach an end. Round up every refugee in camps and they’ll want the next cruelty. Their concerns are not about society, the economy or public safety, they’re an ever-moving target of fear and hatred that cannot be sated, it has to be challenged. And now it’s too late, because you thought that you — and you alone! — would be the first centrist to steal the fascist’s lunch by agreeing with them rather than fighting them with every fibre of your being. Daily Mail headline NO CAP ON MIGRANTS IN LABOUR'S CRACKDOWN, in response to the most repulsively draconian statements about immigrants evere uttered by a Labour government.
