There are less socialists than there are MAGAts. This country will kill every last trans person with a smile on its face before it ever has a socialist revolution. It's not in the realm of reality, whatsoever. Your best option here is total fascism leading to social collapse and hoping magically something socialist comes through the other side. If you're aware of literally any human history whatsoever you know that's not what's going to happen. I appreciate your philosophical position, but it's not realistically tenable. We all die and the country burns down first. So please, I would love nothing more than for one of you to explain how letting the republicans take total power is better. Like how does that play out in reality? What evidence is there to suggest that whatever you hope happens even could happen? Every republican needs to lose every election at any cost from here on out or we're all gonna die.

    You're the one setting the bar at socialist revolution; all I've ever claimed is that we should vote towards is compromise where liberals don't give billionaires everything they want. You're strawmaning me because you can't deal with my actual position.

    The worst part of all this is that Newsom isn't just a shitty Democrat; he's a fascist reject. The only thing that kept him from joining the Republicans was Trump personally disliking him. Unlike the Hakeem Jeffries of the party, he isn't even really a liberal anymore. The man who publicly sits at the table with a Nazi is a Nazi, and he really liked his talks with Charlie fucking Kirk. If it's Trump vs Newsom, it's fascist vs fascist.
