        So in this election you have 99% Hitler on the ballot. If he wins, that might convince 99% 99% Hitler that he has a shot. Just keep on like that, and in a short 60 voting cycles (only 240 years!), Hitler levels will have decayed by almost 50%. That’s the power of incrementalism.

          But if I don’t vote for Hitler 2 then Hitler 3 will be on the ballot in 2028. By voting for Hitler 2 in 2024 he will run as an incumbent in 2028 and by 2032 the progressive faction of the party will run Hitler 1.5

          This is how we win. Don’t let no Hitler be the enemy of some Hitler. That’s how you get Maximum Hitler.

            Gonna go formulate a central theorem of democratic genocidal calculus to determine an equation to minimize the first order Hitler differential.
