he is going mask off Adolf Hitler mode recently (since a few years) and apparently it’s causing a split in the party with most preferring to remain cryptofascist lol. they don’t have any real mass support yet thankfully but still, sucks that nobody has killed this guy yet and the state just lets him do this shit.
Without communists they’d have no one to compete against for working class liberatory rhetoric which would probably be better for them, though the generation of fascist/neolib anticommunism probably helps too
