        If your method of wanting better from the Democrats is letting the Republicans keep power until everything is your ideal, you’re assumed to be an anti-American operative.

        FTFY

          It’s wild to me how someone can say “I voted against fascism” and still be accused of “letting Republicans keep power”

            That’s exactly what they want, if you don’t vote for their approved candidate, you’re against everything they stand for.

              No, what they want is for everyone to stop shitting on their candidate. It doesn’t matter (to them) who the candidate is or if you vote for them - if you’re drawing attention to how shitty they are then you’re just as culpable for their loss as the opposition.

              The emperor has no clothes.

                This is exactly it. They view the person pointing out the problem as the problem. Not accepting that if we can see the problem it doesnt matter how much you scream at people to ignore it.

                  Your words have an impact

                  So do yours. If you want to admonish people for expressing their discontent with democratic representatives, then good luck I guess. Hope you’re getting paid for that sisyphean task, because it sure as fuck seems like a hopeless one.

          letting the Republicans keep power

          lmao My vote doesn’t matter at all where I live. Do you expect me to storm DC and take them out? Grow up.

          Normal people have absolutely zero power over this gross fascist system.

            I dont block them just so that they dont get to say their stupidity without some reasonable response, and give them the downvotes they deserve but thats finitebanjo for you.

            Near infinite free time from their post history and none of it spent on expanding or growing as a person.
