I might get shit for this, but in Wisconsin having a Dem governor has absolutely slowed down the deluge of fascist bullshit we've been putting up with for the past decade and a half. I can't imagine how much worse things would be if Walker was still in power.
That's fair enough, but somewhat of a moot point when the vote scolding is over the presidential election, where the dems have been worse than useless.
That's why Walz is specifically effective at de radicalization. If I were a public figure, my opponents would be making commercials highlighting that I said "if the national Democrats were more like DFL, I might vote for them"
Let's think about it this way. The red team and blue team will only band together to beat down anything remotely leftist, so we kinda are limited to organizing in our local communities. Would you rather do leftist work under a old white person who blows hot air about allegedly believing that immigrants are people and that people have inherent human rights, or an old white person who doesn't even pretend to see non-white people as human and vocally opposes basic human rights? That's what voting is for, as I see it.
Considering they both end up being indistinguishable policy-wise and Mango Mussolini's presidency pushed libs to actually set brunch aside for a bit, I'd much rather take the latter.
Has voting blue ever actually slowed down the progression of fascist policies though?
