    This was funny to me a while back but it's seriously concerning me that there are people who actually believe voting will prevent fascism somehow, magically.

    Do they just completely not understand power? I don't get it. I don't get why people think all power is derived from voting and literally nothing else.

      The USA has given them a rather cushy lifestyle built on exploitation of people very, very far away from them.

      they think that if you get to the point where you actually need to use violence to defeat fascists it's because socialists were too cynical and didn't vote for liberals hard enough to stop the fascists from getting power... or something .... idk ... honestly i don't know if they even think that hard about it
