You kind of have to, since government relies on the consent of the governed. When enough of them will no longer consent to being governed, your government will fail. But if you really want to address that problem, you look at the reasons why people turn to fascism; it's not something that happens in a vacuum.
In this case, the dems are handling it badly; they're trying to move to the right in order to give the fascists the things that they say they want. But what they say they want isn't really the root issue, which means that dems can never go far enough right to win their vote.
Yeah I generally agree with you, Dems aren't doing good at providing an alternative and are actively fighting against voices in the party who are offering an alternative. But at the same time you can't let the fascists accomplish their agenda, you have to use the same tactics they use against the Dems when they're in power. No compromising and obstructing on every thing you can to stop them from being able to implement what they want. Doing that while offering a progressive populist vision would be the only way to recover and pull people back from people like Trump.
