    If your choices are between 100% Hitler and 99% Hitler then the logical conclusion is that the choice-making machine is broken.

      If my choices were between Hitler and Hitler (99% Hitler is still Hitler), I'm moving, but thankfully for us it's more like 100% Kissinger and 99% Kissinger.

      Kissinger was Hitler but for other people/non-Western people.

        99% hitler is hitler, 100% hitler is oskar dirlewanger.

        so clearly, we must vote for hitler.

      If you don’t support Hitler that means you support Himmler

    If you'd vote for 99% Hitler over 100% Hitler, you'd have done nothing about the Holocaust if you were there. Full stop.

      I kinda feel we’re shooting ourselves in the foot with the 99% Hitler line. The crime of genocide has a legal definition, one which does not define a population threshold or number which must be destroyed before it counts.

      Biden is committing genocide. If Trump won and proceeded to intensify the killing, murdering twice as many, that would not be two genocides or a double genocide. The only thing that would double is the number of US presidents guilty of conducting genocide against the people of Palestine. Or the ones conducting this particular escalation, to be more precise. All previous ones are also guilty and history did not begin on October 7

        99% Hitler does not mean "not committing genocide" and genocides can indeed be larger or smaller, and more or less "complete".

        When it comes to the people who see a genuine difference between the corpse of a fascist and the orange of a fascist, it really doesn't make a difference what we say. They look at current events and say "this is what Trump's usia/living unders socialism looks like." They're so divorced from reality that they aren't convinced of what the best recorded genocide of all time truly is.

      Oh, so you're so concerned that the DNVP isn't 100% in agreement with you that you'll just let the NSDAP win then!

    “Why the attitude” is where the NPC meme starts to feel very real. You can’t be passionate about anything but maintaining the status quo.

    One of the biggest problems around is that these clowns accept wholeheartedly the system they inhabit which gives us all these rancid options. They fail to realize that the moral dilemma does not extend to only the concept of voting, but also extends to evaluating the system itself, and if the system is giving you 'Turbo Hitler' and 'Mecha Hitler', you are not obliged to vote for either but instead to tear down the system which gave you those two options

      Pizza hut refers to the infamous Gorbachev ad for Pizza Hut.

      "su" refers to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.su the internet domain for Soviet Union.

    This is the type of person who is ecstatic about being mugged because giving the mugger your wallet is a lesser evil than not doing it and getting shot instead.
