Reductive. Neoliberalism protects and foments fascism as we ratchet a little further to the right each election cycle.

Even if we assume for the sake of the argument that your ridiculous assertion is true, “Let’s do fascism faster” is exactly the kind of bootlicking take I would expect from a tankie.

Never said I was a tankie bruh. A party that bases itself on a slightly more gentle fascism isn’t the cart we should be attaching ourselves to.

It will never ever be the right election for y’all liberal centrists who shit post on left folks. It is always the next one. Point is, if we want to be rid of this fucking fascist shit, we have to build solidarity with the left.

Idealism is fun, but it’s so very extremely privileged.

Not interested in the whole yelling at each other thing, so genuinely asking here. What exactly does not voting democrat get the left in the US? Is the OP’s assumption that you want to accelerate fascism actually correct?

So far I haven’t seen any reason other than either accelerationism or “because it makes me feel bad” and I refuse to believe that’s all that’s behind it.

I’m really having a hard time, and I genuinely think it’s important to try to understand the points of view and beliefs of those we disagree with, rather than immediately turning to infighting.

Didn’t realize that I wasn’t allowed to point out tankie behavior like “Faster fascism Good, Actually” unless the poster self-identified, thank you for the information.

The US system doesn’t work that way. You have a choice between two people. A vote for a third party is a vote not counted.

You’re so engrossed in talking over the other person that you failed to read what they said.

They said “Run a better candidate against” Trump which IS possible to do by the DNC.

SURELY the DNC will listen if they don’t vote, don’t run, and don’t donate, but post a genocide Joe meme from their phone also made available by genocide while wearing clothes manufactured by a genocidal state on land acquired from an ethnic cleansing. That’s the morally upstanding thing to do.

In 2016, the blue team won by 3 million votes and still lost the election. The system is broken. I’ll still vote blue, but I don’t think it will matter, especially since I’m not in a swing state.

Matters for your more local elections. Those swing states still send a lot of republicans to Congress every election. And control of Congress is pretty damn important.

It’s entirely the Democratic Party’s fault if Trump wins another term. But their online cheerleaders are so keen to blame Communists who are such a miniscule percentage of the voting population. Are you going to start Muslim-bashing as well if they don’t turn out in huge numbers to vote for Joenicide?

The sole “Trump will be worse” pitch and constant hostility is absolutely pathetic, and not an election winning strategy. Even your own party leadership knows it. The disconnect between the actual party and it’s online supporters is huge.
