The Republicans are way more murderous than the Democrats so I guess criticising the Democrats is a distraction and helps the fascists according to OP's logic.

    There is no material difference between when a democrat votes to bomb Iran to liberate them vs when a republican votes to bomb Libya-Iraqn because they want to murder more Muslims.

    Surely you're capable of admitting that the Republicans are putting far more immigrants in concentration camps than the Democrats, and therefore they're more murderous.

    If you can't admit who's causing more harm, then I don't see the point of having any kind of discussion with you.

    The old good cop bad cop routine really works on you eh. Can't see past it and you're incapable of having a proper conversation about the issue. You get offended, you think it's so obvious... I would kindly suggest that you look at the USA's & allies' foreign policy trajectory historically over the years. If you manage to look at the facts you will see that no matter which party is in power, the goals remain the same.

    Watch how AOC and the like will not get elected and instead you will get a Newsom character running instead. Happened with Bernie and Hillary before and it will happen again.

    Nobody, that is a regime party and can't be fixed. It needs to go.
    You need genuine 3rd parties, not these astroturfed faces pretending to be leftist keeping this theater going since forever.

    Fair enough, but is there anyone after Nader?

    There have been socialist candidates.
    It's up to you if you want to vote for them or support another one, anyone can theoretically run.
    You will have to get past the blue MAGA who during your last election fought harder to get them thrown of the ballots than fighting red MAGA.
    Very telling.

    Maybe look up the numbers for the Drone King and Genocide Joe if you want to go there.
    If you can’t admit Blue MAGA is just as bad you deserve Red MAGA, and I'm glad you got it.

    Well aren't you just a ball of positivity? 166 comments federating over to our instance, and only 16 net upvotes across them. And if you downvote nearly half as often as you upvote, then it really seems like you're not getting much value out of this site. You might have a nicer time if you log off and go make some friends. You know, go bowling or play some video games. I think you'll have more fun than arguing with people on the internet, which, uh, seems to be most of what you do here.

    it's called the ad hominem tool.
    The petty last resort for those without arguments or facts.

    LOL another one scavenging through comments and attack the messenger when no arguments.
    So there's plenty of disgusting USSA imperialist bootlickers on here.
    It's not a popularity contest.
    I don't like his anti-regime attitude so I'm pretentiously going to suggest he leaves. Would be much easier for you wouldn't it?
    I'm going nowhere buddy.
    You can stuff your ridiculous meaningless upvote count and whatever irrelevant BS up your blue magat ass.
    If you want gleichschaltung go back to your regime controlled Reddit where you can be in your little echo chamber.
    I like it perfectly fine here calling out regime bootlickers and putting them in their place, even if they disgust me sometimes.

    Ad hominem argumentum is all they got. They expect you to fall in line and support all their neoliberal bullshit in their echo chambers. They don't want discussion they want compliance

    BlueMAGA is 10 times worse than MAGA. MAGA tells you to your face they hate you. BlueMAGA will smile at you, embrace you, and hug as if they're an ally while they're driving a knife in your back. And before they do that, they will tokenize you if you were marginalized.

    Which Democratic candidate has run on a platform of bombing Iran to liberate them?

    Do you not see how the way the democrats who voted against the War Powers Resolution justified their votes? There is bipartisan consensus on imperialism abroad and concentration camps at home.

    None of them ever campaign on these issues, they just do it. There's never been a war that Democrats weren't foaming at the mouth to get into

    When leftists do attack Republicans, you think we are one of you. Republicans and Democrats are cut them the exact same cloth, for the exact same ends.

    Socialists are not democrats, they are on the polar opposite of the political scale. The Democrats as a whole do not mind fascism. They just prefer it covert, something they don't have to think about or see or even acknowledge, something they won't interrupt their brunch.
