The purpose of a thing is what it does. If a given political party holding power consistently results in more communism and a swarm of immigrants and alphabets raping kids, *that is the purpose of that political party*. It doesn't matter what it claims or what excuses it makes, its purpose is objectively observable. Anyone who supports it either wants that as a primary goal, or is indifferent to it as an acceptable side effect. If that party raises sugar tariffs by 1%, I can see why someone opposed to tariffs in general might argue it's a tolerable compromise of little consequence. If the party is enslaving people through communism and raping kids all over the place...the "tolerable compromise" argument becomes completely implausible. They're not choosing a lesser evil or unaware of some obscure bad thing that happened once. They want communism and groomer gangs.
