    1. Your strategy is for people to get fed up with the status quo (Dems) and unseat them for good.

    2. You cite examples of how this plays out in fascist states all the time.

    Seems like a justified characterization.

    My rejection is entirely contingent on your rejection of what I had mistakenly presumed was an implicit assumption: the goal is to disrupt the status quo with a leftist power, not a fascist one.

    If you reject that assumption, then sure, you are doing exactly the right thing to help unseat the status quo with a fascist power.

    If you want to adopt that assumption, then no I still disagree with your third statement.

    All the examples you could think of were specifically fascist. The strategy doesn’t work for leftists, it specifically breeds fascism. There’s no evidence of this strategy replacing the status quo with leftists.

      Liar. Where did I claim this?

      What I’ve said, that you’re deliberately mischaraterizing, is that people will inevitably get fed up with the status quo (Dems) and turn to fascism, unless something is done to stop it, either the Dems enacting the necessary policies or people moving to a new party, which are what I advocate for. In other words, the exact opposite of what you’re characterizing my position as.

      Is this all you have? You can’t actually find fault with my reasoning, so finding yourself backed into a corner you just try to lie and slander your way out of it?

            Like I said

            I’m not gonna nuh-uh-yuh-huh with someone who doesn’t understand elections

            I made my point, it remains valid. You’re throwing water on a grease fire because it’s obvious to you that water puts out fire.

              The only reason you’re talking about “nuh-uh-yuh-huh” is because you can’t make a coherent argument beyond that.

              Your “point” is grounded in deliberate lies and mischaracterization.

              Me: If I see something that’s going to start a house fire, I should try to stop it or put it out, or, failing that, plan around the house fire occuring.

              You: Your strategy is for the house to burn down.

              In what way is that not a blatant and deliberate lie?
