    K well as long as you’re unwilling to vote strategically, you’ll continue to allow evil fascists to take over the US. The rest of us will try to elect progressives in primaries and support the most left-leaning viable candidate in the general election because that’s how you defeat fascists if your society isn’t ready for a revolution yet, and ours isn’t. Too many full bellies and entertained morons.

      Oh no! If the evil fascists take over, they might start a war of aggression that kills hundreds of thousands of innocent people or something! Just imagine!

      There’s a discussion to be had about potentially supporting imperfect candidates, but every single one of you takes it to a ridiculous extreme, such that even outright genocide is no biggie. It’s completely ridiculous, utterly absurd. Frankly, yours is not a view that should even be tolerated in society.

      A complete and total refusal to hold politicians to any degree of accountability for literally anything, treating them as completely above the law. This is exactly why the term Blue MAGA is completely appropriate. You are the moderate wing of fascism.

          I love how libs can’t address the points that other people make, and have to keep making up arguments that nobody is saying, to yell at.

          Also, the “person who supports genocidists is mad that their genocidist didn’t get elected” is such a silly concept to me. Then they turn around and yell at the anti-genocidists for “being complicit”.

        Blue MAGA

        This is one of those phrases that tells everyone exactly what they need to know about you. Have a great day!

            Indeed. It says, “I can see you’ve accomplished a level of self delusion I won’t be able to penetrate, so I’m not going to waste my time.”

              I love how Libs always try to blame others for their mistakes.

              “If you didn’t vote for the party that bombs kids, supports rapists, and backed a genocide, it’s because you actually like fascism!”

              This is why the term BlueMAGA works so well: Because Libs can’t see their own cultish hypocrisy, even when it’s staring at them in the mirror.

              I didn’t plunge anybody’s homeland into fascism. It’s just that you’d just rather punch left than blame the people actually responsible.

              There have been many times throughout history where people have considered genocide as acceptable to prevent a greater evil. Every single one of them was wrong.

              “If the enemy is at the gates, we need to round up and exterminate anyone of their race, because if they open the gates to them, they’ll kill us all. The lesser evil is for just some people to die.” That is the level of morality that you’re operating on. Go ahead and lecture me on what kind of day I “deserve,” as if willingness to sacrifice the lives of innocents is somehow a moral virtue and not a sign of your spinelessness and depravity.

                Sorry, but you helped. You decided that your morality was more important than your efficacy. One day you will grow up and regret your decisions like I did. Sorry.

                  Harris decided that supporting genocide was more important than keeping Trump out of office, but for some weird reason, I’m guessing we won’t hear you blame her.

                  Sorry, but you helped.

                  Well then, you’re welcome. Because if I “helped” Trump get elected, then by the exact same logic I “helped” Biden get elected, and you can rest assured that I will be “helping” your favorite genocidal warmonger next time.

                  You decided that your morality was more important than your efficacy.

                  Yes, obviously. That’s what having morals means. Do you believe it is morally wrong to have morals? Because you might want to examine the very obvious logical contradiction there.

                  One day you will grow up and regret your decisions like I did.

                  If I knew that I would wake up tomorrow thinking that, I would kill myself tonight, without hesitation.

                  One day, perhaps, you will grow up and realize the true extent of what you’re supporting. It’s only possible for you to think the way you do because of your blissful ignorance of what your people are doing on the other side of the wall.

                    “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good [people] to do nothing.”

                    You’re doing nothing, and there’s nothing conscientious or moral about it. I hope you develop a stronger will to live before this truth sinks in.
