    K well as long as you’re unwilling to vote strategically, you’ll continue to allow evil fascists to take over the US. The rest of us will try to elect progressives in primaries and support the most left-leaning viable candidate in the general election because that’s how you defeat fascists if your society isn’t ready for a revolution yet, and ours isn’t. Too many full bellies and entertained morons.

      Oh no! If the evil fascists take over, they might start a war of aggression that kills hundreds of thousands of innocent people or something! Just imagine!

      There’s a discussion to be had about potentially supporting imperfect candidates, but every single one of you takes it to a ridiculous extreme, such that even outright genocide is no biggie. It’s completely ridiculous, utterly absurd. Frankly, yours is not a view that should even be tolerated in society.

      A complete and total refusal to hold politicians to any degree of accountability for literally anything, treating them as completely above the law. This is exactly why the term Blue MAGA is completely appropriate. You are the moderate wing of fascism.

        Blue MAGA

        This is one of those phrases that tells everyone exactly what they need to know about you. Have a great day!

            Well if you live in a swing state, you deserve it for plunging my homeland into fascism. Have a mediocre day!

              I didn’t plunge anybody’s homeland into fascism. It’s just that you’d just rather punch left than blame the people actually responsible.

              There have been many times throughout history where people have considered genocide as acceptable to prevent a greater evil. Every single one of them was wrong.

              “If the enemy is at the gates, we need to round up and exterminate anyone of their race, because if they open the gates to them, they’ll kill us all. The lesser evil is for just some people to die.” That is the level of morality that you’re operating on. Go ahead and lecture me on what kind of day I “deserve,” as if willingness to sacrifice the lives of innocents is somehow a moral virtue and not a sign of your spinelessness and depravity.
