Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Oh, good thing you shot down my point by asserting that fascism is inevitable. That makes the fact that you're enabling it totally fine.
Fascism is inevitable if we count on someone like Hindenburg or Biden to save us, because they either can't or don't want to.
Refusing to act because you are idle daydreaming about a perfect solution is the dumbest way of enabling fascism. So thanks for that.
You are fulfilling your own prophecy of making fascism inevitable. And you don't sound as intelligent to the people who understand what's on the line as you do to yourself.
Thanks again for stating outright that you're cool with fascism as long as a true left wing candidate doesn't exist.
In your opinion, is fascism more of a threat now than it was in 2020?
Yes, explicitly. Trump is campaigning on taking political revenge on the party that "stole" his presidency. Republicans are passing bills criminalizing the bare existence of demographics like trans people.
Dude, I was reading just yesterday that Missouri passed a law making it illegal to view lgbtq content without first identifying yourself.
I live in an area in the south where people talk every day about how democrats are going to hang once Trump takes office because they believe all our problems were caused by Biden. It wasn't like this in 2020.
You think you're setting me up for some kind of gotcha, but you're not paying attention.
Keep day dreaming. It's obvious you don't see the writing on the wall. I'm done playing this game where people like you assert that voting Biden is somehow worse than the power grab republicans are practically advertising at this point.
This conversation is over. Thanks again for wasting your vote.
