How is it "moderate" to vote for a party who has direct ties to white nationalists like VDare, Nick Fuentes, and The Oath Keepers?

What good is compromising with said moderates on basic voting and civil rights protections? Sounds like you lose nothing if these people get their way, so it's no skin off your nose if they take over. Must be nice to be in such a safe situation

Real world politics: I live in Nebraska. The Democrats are running a weak candidate for governor who obviously has no chance of winning. So the race for governor in reality is between three Republicans in the Republican primary. I'm a registered Democrat but I am considering temporarily registering as a Republican so I can vote in the primary which is the real election. (I will still vote for the Democrat in the general.) One of the three Republican candidates is being attacked in advertising for "wokeness" for saying that he "see's racism everywhere." (He's on videotape saying exactly that.) Does this candidate have direct ties to "white nationalists like VDare, Nick Fuentes, and The Oath Keepers?" I certainly believe that charge would be unfair. In the real world, I find Manichean worldviews like yours not very helpful.
