Don't like the Fascist Far Left phrase. Drop the "Far" because it implies that this is some kind of fringe movement of the Left. It is the core and beating heart of the Democrat Party and if the movement is to be stopped, you can't allow middle of the road Dems (and I know alot of them) to think that it is only a Far Left part of their Party. This is a huge mistake on D. Parker's part.
I understand your sentiments but there are some very good reasons - mentioned in the piece making the case in using that term.
1. The fascist far left would like to think of themselves as ‘moderate’ and ‘mainstream’ but that is proving not to be the case - including that term reminds everyone of that fact every time.
2. They love to use the term ‘far right’ and just use left - this turns that around on them.
3. It divides them the same way they seek to divide the pro-freedom right.
