Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

I don't follow this, how has this person voting 3rd party in 2016 led to facism starting in the 80s? For that matter, how has 3rd party voting led to facism at all? I'm very much struggling to make sense of this.
That's not what I'm saying, but I'll clarify.
It's people who vote Red or Blue regardless of the quality of candidate that have set us on the path to fascism, and the fact that they've done so for the last 44 years despite the monumental failures of the ruling parties, culminating in two obviously cognitively impaired candidates in 2024.
