The GOP is attempting to destroy democracy, the Dems are not. The GOP are trying to subjugate me as a queer/trans person and POC as well, the Dems are not. The GOP are removing human rights from us, the Dems are not. The Dems are trying to pass green energy legislation, gun control laws, and more while the GOP are blocking it.

Those are some pretty good god damn reasons.

voting for Democrats facilitates fascism.

So you read all of that and you could only muster an emotional response.

I think that says all that needs to be said. You'd rather enable our democracy to be destroyed (and you know, make it harder to do anything about fascism later) and vote in a way that will make you feel a little better about yourself while it goes into the void.

I stated a fact. I don't know what you mean about emotion.

voting for fascist does make it harder to get fascist out of a power. that's why I don't vote for democrats.

we don't have a democracy and we never have.

Yeah see how that turns out if the republicans win next election. They facilitate fascism by being the only alternative to actual fascist politicians. They certainly aren't perfect, but seriously how do you think it plays out if enough morons like you vote for Putin apologist Stein? What do you think the end result will be?

do you think that you're going to win voters by calling them morons?

Stein isn't a Putin apologist.

She's at least a dinner guest.

she paid for her own ticket and transportation and lodging. she's less a guest and more a customer.

Keep carrying that water.

people advocate for politicians they like, it's true.

  • Dines with Putin
  • Helped put Trump in office (Hillary's shit campaign helped too.)
  • Poised to help put him in office again.

Meh. Advocate to someone who has the slightest chance of being convinced to vote for her.

Just trying to help:

Neoliberalism was an attempt to save both the state and capitalism. Capitalism, however, cannot be rehabilitated. It will not save us from totalitarianism or state-sponsored genocide. Capital can absorb any product, service, or practice (including government practice) into itself and then reproduce itself. It is always primed for, always flirting with, the spectre of fascism.
