    Yes and the other side enables them. It’s fascists vs oligarchs that benefit from fascists. We’re not living in a democracy. People need to realize you can’t just vote fascism away. The entire system should be thrown into the dustbin of history.

      “I don’t particularly like the other guys, so in practice I’m fine with Nazi’s in power”

        Unfortunate you felt the need to change their words and ridicule them instead of engaging with their actual point.

        They didn’t say they were “fine with Nazis in power.” They argued the system itself is broken; when the choice is between fascists and those who enable them, you’re not living in a functioning democracy. Voting can’t fix a game that’s already rigged.

        Mocking them just avoids the harder conversation but you do you boo.

          Because they had no point and deserve to be ridiculed. That thought process is precisely what got us here, and they decide to continue to double down.

          Of course Gaza would still be a humanitarian nightmare, but none of the other things happening right now would have been happening if Harris won, and if you can’t see that then you just should never vote again period.
