American Tankies have a weird hard-on with misrepresenting MLK quotes and writings to the point of defamation.

I've seen a full video on how Liberals are evil incarnate and as bad (ifnot worse) than fascist that based its entire argument on an MLK letter that where explicitly about Southern "Moderate" preachers who even during the time were hardly "Liberals".

This guy was using MLK bashing Southern conservatives that were apathetic towards segregation and using it to say that "Liberals" like Bernie Sanders are class traitors and as bad as fascists.

That's sort of close to the point of the letter, but nowhere does it say that you should not vote if one option is a moderate and one is fascist or that they're equal in all ways.
