    Liberals helped create the environment for people like Trump to be a viable candidate with decades of lesser evil bullshit, then they want us to help clean up the mess they made? Hard pass

        If killing tens of thousands of civilians and starving millions is the lesser evil, liberals need to reevaluate their priorities

          Those are definitely liberal priorities, starvation is their main goal, that’s why we should go for the greater evil /s

            Food insecurity in the US at the one of the highest levels ever recorded, yes starvation is one tool they use to control people

              I would argue that conspiracy the other way around… they keep us pacified with $2 cheeseburgers so that we don’t revolt. There will never be a revolution in the US so long as the beef industry continues to receive it subsidies which keep the cost of a Big Mac at around a half hour’s wages.

              That said, if you really think that starvation is a liberal conspiracy used to control the masses, then you are simply delusional.

              It’s conservatives that are trying to undermine social services like food stamps and healthcare, not the liberals.

                Starvation is a tool of capitalism which democrats hold a part in preserving at our expense.

                It was DNC action last year that kicked a shit ton of people off food stamps and Medicaid. It was DNC action that reformed welfare under Clinton that burned the safety net to the working class?. The two collude together at our expense

                  Yeah, one passes food stamp reform and the other literally wants to murder all minorities and race traitors.

                  But to you they are the same, right? Good thing people like you are here to help explain why voting straight Republican is such a better choice!

                    Find where I said vote Republican. Voting for neither is an option.

                    Kicking millions off SNAP was not reform

        I’m not the one mentally justifying the support of someone slaughtering brown people around the world and denying economic hardship here in the US.

          I’m not justifying shit, you’re the one saying that the world deserves fascism. Someone who thinks that way clearly has something to gain under such a vile system

            Red fascism is no different than blue fascism. They both answer to the same people. Republicans are open in their authoritarian motives, democrats are covert in theirs with the outcome being the same

              Where’s the Democratic Party’s version of Project 2025 and Agenda 47? The blue version of the frameworks to turn the US into a theocratic, hyper-capitalist, totalitarian state if their candidate wins?

              Oh that’s right, there is none. Both sides are not the same at all and you bought the lie that they are so you could feel smarter than everyone else about it.

                Their response is not mentioning a thing about it while answering to the same bankers and capitalists at the expense of the marginalized, poor, and the working class.
