  • The big assumption here is that whoever republicans put forward next will be better. I generally agree that we all need to vote to prevent fascism but I want to believe there is a line somewhere, cause now it feels like both parties are moving more and more right each election and sooner or later just being more left than the obvious fascist is not going to be good enough.

    Already, even if we both want the left to have a unified front, the far left are splintering from the increasingly centrist Dems and the seeming only legal democratic way to convince the party to stop putting forward such centrist options is for that segment to stop voting for them.

    I understand that doing that in this election has too high a risk of ending democracy altogether. I just wish I had more confidence that wouldn’t also be true in 2028 and 2032 etc.
