    You all suck and may bear partial responsibility for allowing America to devolve fully into fascism because you can’t hold your nose and vote blue.

        Then please go somewhere else, I’m working hard to keep something I disagree with because I have the nuance of thought required to understand something as complex as “the lesser of two evils”.

        Just take your accelerationist shit away, it’s unhelpful.

          I voted for the lesser of two evils in 2020 and now he’s doing a genocide. That’s where this strategy has lead us.

          I won’t do it anymore.

            You voted for one genocide instead of two. And it worked. Good job. You helped. Please keep helping.

                Oh yea, the collapse of the American government will definitely prevent a world war and not make it happen faster

                  The US is the largest and most belligerent military force on the planet. The only comparable contemporary is Russia, and they’re basically just a gas station with guns.

                  Yes, the defeat of the US will save the world.

                Insurrection against a liberal government is easier than insurrection against a fascist government. I don’t want to have to deal with Trump’s Proud Boy Gestapo on top of all the challenges the revolution already faces.

                    “You know what? It’ll be fixed! It’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote any more, my beautiful Christians,” he said with a slight shake of his head and his right hand pressed against the left side of his chest.
                    He added: “I love you. Get out – you gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.”
                    Trump’s remarks – delivered not far from his Mar-a-Lago resort and home – were immediately met with consternation in some political quarters.
                    The constitutional and civil rights attorney Andrew Seidel, for instance, replied to video of Trump’s comments circulating on X by writing: “This is not subtle Christian nationalism. He’s talking about ending our democracy and installing a Christian nation.”

                    The stakes are a little higher this time than in 2016. The plan is bolder. The future will not be like the past.

      You’re already in a fascist state that is participating and funding genocide, aiding and abetting multiple conflicts around the world and using your tax dollars and silent complicity to do it.

      Wake the fuck up, you’re already dead!
