Ultimately though this attitude is just "you shouldn't advocate for anything because the fascists might be emboldened". It's victim-blaming, and cowardly centrism. "This is really your fault; if you hadn't demanded things then we wouldn't be in this situation". I do generally happen to think that diversity, gender equality, freedom of speech, and public health are causes that are important. I don't feel like being told to shut up about it because someone else is a fascist is very productive.
