No hostility for this person, but I do think it is interesting and problematic that later they frame the liberal/non-extremist right vs. having a fascist right as the "only" option. I reckon someone would be correct to say...

On both sides of the pond you get responses like this to people correctly saying “hey given that liberals can’t win every election forever, we really need a non-extremist right of centre party here” because they can’t see past the ends of their noses.

"...even the liberal/non-extremist right dynamic has led to the unjust deaths of millions of humans and billions of nonhumans, so my political aim is to go beyond your false dichotomy." Someone who (reasonably) holds that stance might also say liberals "can’t see past the ends of their noses."

This being said, yes, Kevin C's rhetorical style is pusillanimous, unhelpful, and annoying.
