If these didnt upload correctly let me know I’ll delete the post. Conversation I just had in a local discord where dude didn’t even read my comment and attacked me for not being onboard with Harris and fed me a fearmonger. So over fucking dem voters man.

I just dont have any leftists in my life to gripe with, sorry. 🤣

EDIT: Ive always gotten on well with this dude and we agree on a lot, which really made it worse that he didnt bother reading what I wrote. I just deleted my comments and left the server (its just a small side server for our area anyway.)

    I don’t understand the fixation with the “2 party system” when the two parties have the same policies, both are pro-wall, pro-kids in cages, pro-israel, and have demonstrated no will to protect abortion or trans rights. And the party that’s making you lose the ability to vote 3rd party is the Democratic Party.

    Fascism is not something you simply vote against, it’s not up to you or some large section of the population in some elections. Fascism is capitalism in decay, the response to a deep crisis that needs violence to bring capital back to safety, and it is implemented through any means necessary. Is “installing a dictator” necessary? No, because none of the two parties represent a threat to capital, and in fact they serve capital, and their hegemony remains unchallenged (and everyone in their way gets the media against them, gets prosecuted, or plain killed). Both parties have continued their policies (Kamala even criticized Trump for not building the wall he promised), they work in tandem. The elections are already a sham, working perfectly fine. The dictatorship is already there.

      This is precisely what I tell Democrats when they get extra faschie about “falling in line” with Harris. They get so mad about being called Blue MAGA but can’t stop themselves from using every MAGA behavior in the book.
