    In the end, if people aren’t willing to vote against fascism, you cannot prevent it by establishing new rules (or in this case breaking the old ones).

      You can’t vote your way out of fascism but you can certainly vote your way into it.

      Maybe one of these days the liberals will fucking learn from history.

      Yeah a lot of people blaming Biden when we all had a fair shot at voting against fascism. We suck. May as well actually accept that.

          Pssh. I mean, I voted. I did my part. Millions others though didn’t.

          I don’t why lemmy people find it so hard to not blame the DNC and actually blame the people who either voted for fascism or did nothing to stop it. Maybe because some of them are the very same as the latter.

            Cause it’s not productive and doesn’t do anything.

            We can blame the people that voted for it and not for it all we want but they are a manifestation of other issues. There is not a specific person you can blame when the numbers hit the millions. It becomes useless musing.

            People don’t think like you. Just you. It then becomes on us and those that lead and aim to gather the support of others to figure out why they didn’t reach more.

              Sure it does. Same way you shame bad parts of society. Non voters deserve blame and shaming. Ignoring their abdication of civic duty just entrenches their bad behavior by excusing it.
