    Cute you think I give a fuck as yall play “3 steps to fascism instead of 5” and think you saved the world.

    The funny part is yall claim to be the big hero harbingers of freedom but if somebody is an inch left of mid right Biden yall are just as fascist as they are.

    Hell, yall don’t even TRY to combat Republicans because they’re your precious status quo. The only real threat to you is change for the better. Yeah Trump is a dictator whatever but single payer healthcare FUCK NO we’ll take the dictator!

      I don’t claim anything. I don’t care what an Internet stranger feels about me. I care about there being a future.

      I don’t want trans kids to die, like my friend’s younger sister who couldn’t get access to legit medical care and had to buy street drugs.

      I don’t want black people murdered by cops given carte blanche to go even further than now. They’re promising us this world.

      Fwiw, if your argument is that I should expect more intelligence and open mindedness from Republicans than you, it might be time to check in with yourself and take stock.

      And Gaza is a place where families and children live and are being genocided. There is no logic statement that starts there and ends with we’re better off with Trump, other than you proving a point or focusing on blame instead of solutions.

      You live in ideas. I live in the world.

      I’m honestly listening, what’s your solution?
