When the "something worse" is literal fascism, there are no other choices. Stopping fascism is more important than any progressive agenda item because those agenda items will never happen with fascists in power.

They'll also never happen without progressives in power. Keeping the status quo based solely on the fear of the other guy taking over sounds like the last 50 years (at least) of US politics.
