I don't support it, but I'm a Democratic Socialist. You guys elect shitty people and don't listen to us and then inexplicably blame us for your failures.

And I do sorta hate that team color is so important to you and yours that it's going to lead to the US becoming a legit fascist country.

Yep, and the GD "liberal media" is not helping when they continue to play this horse race nonsense like the cowardly corporate quislings that they are. They are acting like nothing is really at stake other than which party is running things and that "both sides" are more or less equal.

This is just not true.

Joe Quimby is so weak he allowed Sideshow Bob, a convicted criminal, out of prison. So you should vote for Sideshow Bob!

It isn't all we can do, but it's a pretty good thing to do. It's part of my Diversity of Tactics.

The real question is, how do I know this isn't some kind of misdirection from an even more dangerous opinion for both parties?

What you think is irrelevant. You're just as powerless as the rest of us to stop this.

We voted anti-fascist in 2020. What we got was (depending on where you live) a 30% - 50% cost of living increase, a trillion-plus war spending per year (and we can't know the exact figure because we're funding other countries' wars now too), a national abortion ban, and zero action on housing scarcity on top of it. We got no meaningful action against anyone involved in the January 6th domestic terrorist attack, despite Biden having Congress on top of the presidency. We might be lucky and get one high-profile Proud Boy behind bars, maybe.

This isn't an intentional misdirection. This is reality.

The people we voted for did a shit job, and as we saw in 1930's Germany, no one is going to care if a person is fascist or not if that person is the candidate of change. 2024 is a lost cause, and it's because Democrats didn't do more when we handed them power.
