    Yes, and this isn’t just about November or a single term.

    That’s why you keep spinning round and round in the same cycle of DNC abuse, they set themselves up so it’s either them or the End of All Things and you swallow that dichotomy whole every time.

      So I should just not vote is what you’re saying.

      I still fail to see any suggestion from you that is a better alternative.

        I’m not telling you to do anything. You have three choices, 1) Fascist 2) Fascist-Lite 3) Send a message to Fascist-Lite to hope it finally sinks into their thick Neanderthal skulls and they can’t keep ignoring their base.

        That’s it, you do whatever you feel is best.

          Except that options 1 and 3 are the same. They come as a pair. So if you think you can stomach option 1, then by all means go for option 3.

          Let a dictator seize power, tear down our democracy, and install himself and his successors for life. That’ll teach them Democrats a lesson.

          No one’s saying reform doesn’t need to happen. But it isn’t gonna happen before November. And it certainly isn’t going to EVER happen after November if the side that would refuse to give up power once they have it gets elected.

      This would read a lot less out of touch if that “abuse cycle” wasn’t the actual fucking truth

      Believe it or not, there is never a fucking safe time to let the fascists win!

      Aren’t you supposed to be the ones who are the only ones who take the threat of fascism seriously?

      Here’s your chance, put the fuck up or get on the wall with the rest of the collaborators when the revolution you’re creaming your jorts for actually does come and the actual victims of fascism take stock of everyone who could have helped prevent their trauma and actively fought and whined and bitched and moaned to not do that.
