    90% of them are accelerationist. They never cared whether Biden was responsible for it or not. Portraying everything as being his fault suits their goals in getting the worst person elected. Hastening the crash of government and Society in the United States. Nothing more nothing less.

    You will never have a good faith discussion or constructive discussion with any of these people. Again it’s not in their interests. They are all pushing a deadly dangerous agenda. And do not care who or how many people it will hurt or kill. They simply want to be the one hurting others instead of the ones being hurt. The absolutely do not care and do not want to make things better for everyone.

    That said it is absolutely imperative to push back against these types anywhere you see them. Even if you don’t reach many. You may keep a few uninformed people from falling prey to similar radicalization.

      You’re on the money. I push back every time I see it. It’s always the same thing. Downvotes without response when they’re presented with facts, just like the comment you replied to.

        Yeah and I totally get where they’re coming from. I still understand it’s a bad thing but I do understand it. It’s easy to see all the problems and just want to burn it all down. Thinking that they could do better rebuilding from the ground up. It’s the same mistaken confidence and bravado that makes people anti-vaccination or anti-science. And they will go ape shit on you if you point that out.

        Life just seems easier when you have a clear cut boogyman or enemy. It allows you to justify all sorts of bad behavior. As much as we ridicule and laugh at conservatives because of it. Everyone can fall prey to it.

          The sad thing is it’s their disengagement that causes the Republican wins that perpetuate the problem. If Democrats maintained control of the Presidency and Congress for long enough, they’d inevitably shift all the candidates towards progressivism to capture more votes. The youth vote has control, but every new generation is convinced by Republicans and anarchists that they don’t. I had the same problem at 20 years old. It’s not a new game.
