Everyone should be constantly reminded that he, as well as every conservative and neolib, helped and empowered fascism right up until the final hour, but they shouldn't be treated like they're the enemy for opposing it either (unless their actions are incongruent with their words).

Welcome their support, but remind them that they're compromised, anything but an expert or authority, and that they do not deserve to hold a seat at the table when the monster they created is eliminated.
