    The constant "emergency" represented by the current cycle is connected to the fact that the dems don't just not give a shit about fascism but literally bankroll far-right candidates. They want Republicans to be as far right as possible because it lets them be "left of the Republicans" while still being far to the right, and by keeping their base in a neverending sense of crisis, of "now is not the time to seek positive change, we need to reduce harm" with no means of stopping harm or, God forbid, reversing harm, you are literally just wasting your time telling people to vote for a slow death over a quick one instead of considering how to stop the killing.

        I beg of you to realize that unconditionally voting for someone who is less right wing means they can and will take your vote for granted and thereby never give you anything.

        They've been running this "vote against the Republican" bullshit for around a half century and it's what got us here.

            Instead of trying to convince us to vote for candidates who suck, you should go try to convince them to suck less. Then they could earn our votes. So simple!
