History do be repeating itself, first as tragedy then as, you know, the thing.
They have already started speedrunning the 2016 election and blaming leftists and gay people. This time they are not even waiting for the election, they have started blaming us 5 months in advance since everybody knows it's joever

The right thing is to vote third party or not vote at all. It is actually, genuinely immoral to vote for people who are committing genocide. Our vote is the only bit of influence that the legal system even pretends to sort of half-recognize; we cannot give that up to endorse genocide.
The ideas in Project 2025 have been around for decades. That faction of Republicans has been openly calling for theocracy as long as I can remember. The Democratic Party never pretended to care about it, never did anything about it. It only pretends to care now as a cudgel to scare people into voting for the genocidal Democratic Party.
Voting for the Dems out of fear of what the Republicans will do is Western-chauvinist and white supremacist. It says that Americans' civil liberties matter more than Palestinian (and Iraqi and Libyan and Pakistani and Afghani) people's lives.
If voting 3rd party is voting for Trump then voting 3rd party is also voting for Biden so it cancels out. If I had to pick the lesser of two evils I would have to vote for Trump because he has murdered fewer people than Biden has. But there are third parties and I don't believe in lesser evil voting so I won't be voting Trump.
I saw you are afraid of being incarcerated for being trans and to that I have to say, grow up and grow a spine. I had to figure out how to deal with the fear of being jailed, deported, or killed by the fascist US government for being Muslim when I was a kid and I figured out how to live with that fear. You can too. Biden's genocide shows that no matter what lies they peddle to scam votes out of people, no mainstream politician will protect minorities. Biden hasn't stopped any of the persecution against trans people and my state now has a bunch of trans refugees from red states. You would throw the most vulnerable people in the world, who are actively being murdered en masse, under the bus solely out of fear that you might be imprisoned? Toughen up, comrade. We're going to need toughness and resilience to fight American Fascism, and the Democrats are hell-bent on working with the Republicans to usher in that fascism
