I'm sorry if that offends you but to have a coalition you do have to compromise, and you do have to even sometimes ally yourself with people you don't like.
I can make a clear distinction between all of those whom I would have in my coalition and the evil rightwing assholes. You can tell me that you can't do that, but you can't convince me. You can do it.
If you don't do what you need to do, then you're helping evil rightwing assholes and you're hurting those of us who oppose them with every fiber of our body. You are, of course, free to make the wrong choice. That's all on you, but you don't have my respect if you do.
That ought to be clear enough.
