You don't need to write the treatise because the era of that kind of "logic" winning elections is over. (ie the left being able to label whole political movements as bad because certain bad people associate themselves with it)
I didn't label a whole movement as bad, ya goofball. Well except for neo-Nazism and theocracy, the latter of which is explicitly counter to the US Constitution and the former is... well... you can defend it if you'd like.
I said extreme ideologies (including the two I mentioned) are bad, and there's an asymmetry in their representation and proximity to power on the different ends of the political spectrum.
Who are the good white supremacists?
yeah so you're doing the same thing. the era when people fall for the rhetorical trick of labeling a group as [really bad thing] in order to make them not want to associate with that group is over.
you'll just have to compete on ideas instead of word games now.
