    NGL, this week is probably the closest I have ever been to sympathizing with 2016 Trump voters who voted for him to “make the libs mad.”

      I get the feeling you’re by far not the only one.

      Harris is so annoying it’s unreal. I don’t think Hilldawg ever came close to this level.

      Honestly it’s pretty common for me, particularly after Gaza (but before since Biden as well). At the very least the out-and-comparatively-““honest”” fascists tend to believe on some level what they do. Libs know and embrace or deny exactly how vile they are, I have infinitely more hatred for them as a result now that they’re all going on their usual high horse about yellow peril (strike 1), Russian “orcs” (strike 2), and then supporting genocide regardless of how much they try to shrug and wash their hands of the matter (strike 3, 4, 5, and onwards)

      If shit were ever to go down with me in it (would ideally gtfo) I would rest… easier anyways, so long as the libs get theirs, what they support and advocate for, in full as well. Legit if I were to vote for anyone out of spite (as I have absolutely nil belief in electoralism) these past few years it’ll be literally anyone other than libs, I’d even support an ““honest”” fascist over them (though I wouldn’t support a fascist or a lib- not that there’s a difference- ever, plain and simple).

      All they need to do is stop the genocide. They won’t do that, we all know they won’t do that. Might veer into some dangerous places saying this but such behavior is real- well, they might be human beings but they sure as hell ain’t the same as the rest of humanity in their actions and I’d stick to that and act accordingly

      I look at it as a broken clock moment. I keep telling myself to not forget that those are the vanguard of fascism in this country; but… Goddamn they have precisely one good point about these gladhanding neoliberal compradors. Heartbreaking.
